Each of my artworks is built up with multiple layers of paint and collage papers. I always begin with hectic scribbles, garish colour combinations and clashing patterns. Textural paint blobs and gouged out line work are present in each layer some are revealed in the sanding back process, some are lost forever. Gradually the works are covered again with more precise shapes and symbols and more refined colour palletes, cutting in and out revealing and hiding till the adventure comes to a satisfying end. Sometimes it’s a drawn out process, sometimes a quick respite. The final works are like a travel album that upon reflection reveal all the stages of my adventure.
