Painting

01: Oscilate

This painting is about flow and healing, using a chemical reaction as my abstract reference. I wanted to capture a vibrational energy within the work, as well as pushing the saturation and contrast to enhance the curved waves.

Painting

02: A Pearl

This piece is purely intuitive, every brushstroke building off the last. The composition is sectioned with the vast majority flowing each colour into the next, while the section on the right is structured using cellular influences. I attempted to... More

Painting

03: Saturday Sun

This work operates as a point of optimism and bright expression of joy radiating outwards, a direct contrast to my larger blue painting. I wanted the piece to have an element of movement and ease, as well as high contrast and saturation to emulate... More

Painting

04: "Do You Know The Way To Blue?"

My sadness often exists in a state between flow and static, serenity and chaos. There is a element of dreaming and romanticization, a sort of pull to keep you in the depression. This work exists in that realm, vibrant waves existing in a grey... More

Painting

05: Topanga Sunset

This piece is inspired by a small grotto I visited in California in the back of a crystal shop. The process was meditative, I painted intuitively based on what I was feeling at that very moment, balancing grief with a sense of calm and a... More

Painting

06: Made To Love Magic

This painting has an atmospheric quality and acts as an expression of the detached reality I often find myself in as an escape from reality. The long form in the middle acts like a dive into this dream dream-like realm separate from rational... More

Painting

07: Burned Out, Still Glowing

This piece is about my experience with experiencing overstimulation, which is represented by the loud colourful geometric forms interacting with each other.

Painting

08: Shot Nerves

This piece is my depiction of anxiety, with the dark stormy background illustrating the deep ache of anxiety festering within the body. The central form acts as the source of the energy propelling the nerves outwards. I used cellular and biological... More

Painting

09: Bert

This piece plays with abstraction and representation, the bright saturation emulating a sense of child-like wonder.

Painting

10: Microbe

This piece shows a micro-biome containing a community of micro-organisms existing within an ecosystem that is present in all forms of life and found everywhere, which to me is very vast and incomprehensible. I used a circular canvas to mimic a... More
