Acrylic on wood, ready to hang.
Signed certificate of authenticity.
Pure white overlapping circles dominate most of this work. Down the centre these circles are randomly cut to form organic curves. The work is overlaid with a pearlescent white glaze which lends a beautiful soft shimmery effect.
THE COLOUR POP COLLECTION
Circles within circles within a circle. No beginning, no end. Eye catching proliferation was inevitable.
THE PROCESS
I paint on surfaces which allow for the subsequent remova of the paint when dryl. It is a slow process of squeezing paint into circles that then take up to a week to dry. Hundreds are needed in their dried state before being layered and glued onto a panel. An individual work in progress resembles an assembly line and takes up an inordinate amount of paint.
INFORMATION FOR COLLECTORS
The work is glued into place and varnished.
It is secured on a painted wooden panel with a hidden, wooden framework which allows the painting to âfloatâ a few centimetres (one inch) from the wall. It is fitted with D-rings and wire for immediate hanging.
On the back you will find the Title, my signature and initials, and the year.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
Born in the UK and settling in Australia in 2005 after 12 international moves in 17 years, I feel my life has been a patchwork of cultures. This plays out in my need to fragment my work. I seem incapable of seeing a painting as finished until it has been deconstructed and remade in various ways. I have an innate urge to chop things up and put them back together again.
I have been a full time artist for many years, working across various mediums, including fibre and glass. I have been featured in numerous newspaper and magazine articles and am a published author with my book âSculptural Secrets for Mosaicâ as well as writing for other art authors. I have also been a guest speaker and writer for Radio National in their series on Colour Theory. I have been represented and exhibited in New York and Italy as well as Melbourne. My artworks are held in private collections in the UK, Sweden, Italy, the USA and Australia.
Currently I am studying for my BFA with a double major in Painting and Sculpture, graduating in August 2019.
