This is a large original, one off, abstract painting on canvas ready to hang on your beautiful wall.
This painting, 'Random Precision IV', is inspired by the nurturing & healing quality of muslin fabric. The painting belongs to my ‘Life Enlarged’ series and again looks at the tiny minutiae of life and objects, what is real but cannot be seen with normal sight.
At a microscopic level, I am inspired by the vastness and sublime of the minutiae of life, the beauty of things enlarged under magnification.
In this artwork I over-enlarged the grid-like patterns found in the weave of muslin fabric and re-shaped it into an ambiguous floaty space. There is a very textural tactile feel as I attached muslin cloth directly onto the canvas surface giving the whole surface a deep delicate ambiance. This also echoed the original source of the image.
On this already beautiful tactile surface I used my mark making quite primitively. In layers upon layer, I manipulated the repetitious lines of the cloth to give the image a feeling of being weightless and floating almost like fishing nets drifting in the ebb and flow of the ocean. Something fragile, dainty, immaterial but also a little mysterious. There is a very 3 dimensional look with the depth of the repeated brush marks across the surface and layers of subtle glazing.
I wanted the painting to have a boundless shimmer of light and air, sublime and beautiful.
What I enjoy most about my paintings is they make people smile with a sense of wonderment and feelings of happiness as well as giving their walls finesse and with a splash of colour for years to come.
