I’m in love with Delacroix!! Went to see exhibition at the National Gallery yesterday and I’m still buzzing!! Woke up thinking Delacroix this morning. Want to see exhibition again!!! But not today…too wide-eyed at the moment. Trying to stop myself from becoming a groupie!! Dont think I can ever see too much Delacroix. Learnt so much!. Its amazing how you often think of light and shade, colour theories, layering etc but when you see it applied so thoroughly in a painting. Its breathtaking. I totally get why he inspired so many great artists.
Delacroix and the rise of modern art is a must see!
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?
