I went to see an exhibition at the London Print Studio and met John Phillips. His work has to be seen to be believed! His photographs actually pop (so realistic). See I can’t even find the words.
I saw Matisse’s ‘painting with scissors’ and now I am buzzing with ideas. Did you know Matisse was in a wheelchair and 80 when creating his cut outs. I have no reason to think it is ever too late to do anything!! Did you know he trained as a lawyer before switching careers? Think it; be it. Dream it; achieve it!
Spontaneity is the watchword that informs my art practice. My artwork celebrates the energy of abstract expressionism.
'why not?' underlines my creative process. Forget the box! Its obsolete...it's all about whatever shape you want to throw on that dance floor! The process drives my practice!! For me, work well done is work I have thoroughly enjoyed making...work that has made me think, sweat, cry, scream and come back for more!!! Work that gets my back up; pushes me...gives me cause for doubt. Makes me push in order for 'why not?' to become possible. Boundaries? What boundaries?
