Sydney
Most of my work is landscape inspired ,over the decades I have moved from a semi-realistic style to a now , more abstract approach .
Artworks: 19
I worked for a long time in watercolour and gouache in a semi-realistic style . About 5 years ago I decided I had taken that particular approach as far as I could and began to explore ideas about music and painting . I found a musical notation book in a Vinnies op shop and thought ” What a nice way to arrange a page ” Using two themes ; Songlines for a sunburnt country ” and” Lyrical landscapes ” I explore ideas about rhythms , harmonies , notation etc . I like to use words and numbers , I draw alot so most of my current work are collages of my drawings that I play around with using a photocopier , enlarging , reducing etc .
I have a background in architecture and that probably still shows , I want to make works that are beautiful , interesting and different .Carn,t see much point in doing work thats all been done before .
