THE HOUSE WARMING SERIES consist of paintings exploring the world’s we create inside our homes the landscapes we fill with objects stories memories colours pattern textures.
References to the great modern artist Henri Matisse is in all of them as he recreated sumptuous interiors for his still lifes and nudes utilising textiles and showcasing his love of pattern and unique perception of space . My paintings merge in the inside and outside the natural and fabricated
Celebrating the creativity of the homemaker, the mythical act of composing a home interior that is often overlooked
The dreamscape the album the theatre if homemaking and decorating collecting and displaying and orchestrating a canvas of memories and style
The last painting of this series will be available in my website art for sale medium paintings this week.
HOUSE WARMING : The Blue
Musing on the concept of house warming and making ‘a good and radically new home’ extended to envisioning
spaces that creative people occupy : couples , friends , family A home can be a prison, a castle , storage space, a life story, a love story, a canvas, a work in progress.
Ultimately it is a form of self expression. Through these paintings domestic and wild are interwoven, organized and accommodated. Tamed only
to a point,
‘
The Wild is a dimension we all have within us . In these space it is channeled into colour, pattern, love and Art
itself. Homes are our workshops and a creative palette where our mind, hearts and life is an ongoing smorgasbord of mix and match
A composition of sorts
