Using palette knives to create my large landscapes on canvas, I quickly cover the surface with a base layer using 3 colours and white.
Rich with many layers of colour, large sweeping strokes create texture, movement and slowly scene emerges. It is a process of trust to collaborate with the story being painted. Returning to the canvas over many sessions, I use the technique of “sgraffito,” scratching through wet paint to reveal colours beneath. These works reflect the essence of the Earth. Forest paths, rivers and ponds all evoke feelings of peace, wonder and grounding.
In many ways, these paintings document my thoughts and feelings. As my art continues to evolve, I look forward to the day when I can witness my art practice reciting forgotten memories embedded in the strokes of each painting. I hope a story you hold dear is told in one of my paintings.
