Artist Statement
Colour is my single most important instrument; it reflects the hidden beauty in the subjects of my artwork. Feeling inspired to create is the most amazing thing. Every opportunity to be creative should be seized with enthusiasm.
All kinds of subjects inspire me when painting – I’ll paint anything & everything! I love using colour to create depth & interest, and I constantly strive to make my work as colourful as it can be by taking careful consideration of complimentary colours. The more dynamic and vivid I can make my artwork the better; and I am always looking to develop my style and I take influence from artists all over the world – past and present. Paintings that resonate in the mind excite me the most! Amongst my favourite artists include William Holman Hunt, Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Wassily Kandinsky and Leonid Afremov, to name just a few. I am inspired by the Impressionist art movement of the 19th Century in general – I think a lot can be learnt from the freedom & expression employed by the artists of this revolutionary era.
My paintings vary in size; the choice of canvas size depends on several factors including the mood I am in, the subject I have chosen, and the size of environment chosen to paint in! Texture is very important to me when choosing paints to work with, which is why I don’t tend to use watercolours, and the tendency of oil paintings to deteriorate over time makes me sad. So I use good quality acrylic paints because of their vibrancy, versatility, and longevity.
Being an artist is a very personal thing – it requires a certain outlook; I am on a journey through life. I paint, I draw, I play music – I consider myself a creative individual with a fondness for academia. As I learn about the world – whether it be something seemingly relevant, like learning an artistic technique, or whether it be something seemingly irrelevant, like reading a Stephen King novel – anything and everything is beneficial. It is my passion for learning which aids my development as an artist.
