Into the blue #2

This was a second larger work inspired by the ocean, the deep ocean where colours are deeper, darker, but also have flecks of colour and life from the life within.

The canvas is a long rectangle (different to the other square works available), suiting a lounge, dining, study or office setting. The piece was composed with pallet knives and a combination of AS and WN oil paints. It has been varnished and is ready to hang.

There is a significant amount of paint and texture, adding to the illusion of movement and life that we see staring into the ocean when out at sea.

It is the perfect piece to place somewhere to refresh the mind, when a trip to the ocean is too far away.

This piece is perfect for a bedroom and dining area, to hang above a bed or table. It also is well suited to an office or waiting room.

I am a Western Australian artist. My work can be considered expressionist and at times abstract, it can be bright, intense, dark - but always heavily textured.

My paintings explore and use the materiality of oil paint to capture moments and experiences, nature, sensations and memories - children/pets playing, leaves falling, oceans heaving, coral dancing, sandcastles falling, anxiety, peace and joy.

My processes and techniques use the texture of oil paint, carefully placed and layered with pallet knives and brushes to create the illusion of movement, space and a three dimensionality to evoke feelings and visceral connections of being present in a moment, experience or sensation.

While I primarily work in oil paints I do also enjoy playing with other mediums, particularly charcoal and oil pastels, creating playful works of my children’s leftover fruit – waste not want not!

While I am openly still developing and mastering my processes while completing my studies at Curtin University (OUA) and commence a professional artistic practice, I have been fortunate in selling commissioned artworks, exhibiting in Western Australia and selling work throughout Australia.
