Sundowner II

“Sundowner II is a larger mixed media work depicting my studio, but changing certain elements, like the bedspread and window detail behind.

Painting an object or scene multiple times allows me to experiment with other aspects of the work, i.e., materials, textures, colour combinations. There are areas that are more representational and others more abstract. I like that it is up the viewer to work these things out. 

It is also quite unlike me to leave areas of the paper untouched, but I felt the white was needed to balance the array of colours I’ve used.”
