| I like to think of my painting as being of an
Irish style while possibly being blended with a more global design sense. I
have always been inspired by the beauty of the Irish landscape and tried to
capture the subtle atmosphere, light and moods of the land. Paintings can
become a mix of abstract shapes and symbols, perhaps interspersed with small
sketches or printed shapes, developing organically toward an amalgam of real
and flat space. My art is always about hidden items and layers covering layers.
It is always about balance of opposites; calm versus chaos, light against dark,
line and shape, colour amid greys. I would like to think of the finished piece
conveying that energy - the energy of exploration, of the creative process, of
hiding and revealing precious elements and layers, of working to achieve that
ultimate balance or tension. |
