A large paper 73×77 (handmade paper from the Kangaroo Valley) with collage, acrylic and a bit of madness !! I do like this one.
Still life… as close as I get to flowers in a painting!
Somehow these shapes appeared today and I went with it… Usually I avoid subjects or they don’t occur to me but maybe the suggestion of a leaf and use of green was too much to resist. A painting is a conversation between brush and surface so maybe the subject was botanical today.

New works for February
Some of these are reworked pieces from the past. I often find if I tire of a painting and it no longer holds my attention, something needs to change! Either the painting is not resolved or I have changed my gestural marks. I am always seeking simplicity which is difficult to achieve with vibration and content.
