I can't say that I have had preconcieved notions of what I am hoping to create at the onset of any of my pieces. For me it has become a ritual of applying paint to what ever I'm working on and seeing what reveals itself...as I go. My more recent pieces have been a combination of mixed media (Oil Pastels, gesso, paper and sometimes floor shellac). Without any derived theme, or method. Instead I try to use color, abstract shapes and surface textures to create visual meraphors for contemporary life.
I think these pieces are essentially abstract and could best be classified as non-representational, in the combining of a variety of experimental elements which create a representation abstraction.
According to one definition: "An Abstract artist is someone whose art departs in varying degrees from representation".
I believe that my pieces are abstracted from a combination of daily activity, pivotal experiences and emotions which extract themselves and manifest themselves into textures and forms.
I just hope that those who view my work, will allow themselves to be carried away by his/her unconscious mind allowing the movement, the texture and the colour to shape his/her conscious mind.
A reminder from a follow artist: "Let the painter shut his mouth...Let the art speak". - Bart Van Oijen-
