Translucent Impressions
Opening Thursday 30 May 6-8pm
Exploring Beauty in Colour and Form
A collection of paintings in oil on canvas, accompanied by several smaller works on wooden panels. Limited edition prints will also be available.
In my artwork, colour and light are paramount. I aim to create the illusion of transparency, highlighting how form and colour interact. The sharp, defined edges and vibrant colours dance lightly across the canvas, emphasising the beauty of colour itself. I explore the ever-changing nature of life, using translucence and light to express ideas of enchantment, beauty, and impermanence. Through my pieces, viewers catch glimpses of imagined worlds and ethereal landscapes, inviting them to contemplate the transient aspects of existence.
