This is a new piece of work that I have begun. I found a large frame and a piece of hardboard which I cut to fit. This is the first layer using unwanted emulsion paints which I have sourced. I have also drawn into the paint with pencil. I will use oil paints and oil sticks once the paint is fully dried.
I am a painter facinated by ancient artforms and primitive cultures. This facination began whilst studying for my degree in Anthropology. I am interested in the beginings of expression and language in its pictorial form. My work is an attempt to access my unconcious mind and I create 'raw' artworks which express my internal emotions. My art practice links me into that instinctual drive for expression which began with our ancient ancestors.
