figure in archway number 2

Every now and again I like to revisit an old artwork, that's what this painting is, Like its predecessor I felt the figure was lacking in personality so I added something to it. When im out in the world sometimes I stop and focus on a person in for a period of time, taking in their persona, attitude and the vibe they give off in a passing interaction. The colours, lines and shapes are my attempt at conveying these ideas.

I find that my art enables me to express elements of my world that can't necessarily be seen by the naked eye, its an attempt at conveying something a bit intangible. Abstraction is the primary way I communicate my ideas and experiences in art.
The naive and somewhat primitive lines, shapes, colours and textures I use are my attempt at capturing the atmosphere, personality or feeling of a place or person I have encountered in my life, realism or a photograph in my opinion doesn't always capture these elements of the world.
I feel that my art brings these to the surface...it shows the soul of something, somewhere, or someone. Perhaps you will see someone you know within my strange works, maybe even yourself.
