Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.
Signed on the back.
My roots, feeling grounded, people around me, music, text, color, free flow create some sort of dialogue between me and the progressing work and influenced me while making this abstract figurative painting. When I start a painting I like not having a specific idea of what I am going to do. It might just be a case of thinking, 'I want to make a large, narrative painting', or, 'I want to make a small, really abstract and quiet scene.'
It's more about depicting atmospheric ideas that I might have. I like allowing the painting to speak back to me, so that it stays a continuous dialogue. It can remind me of certain things happening in my life or around me in the world at that specific time so I go from there. And it will let me know when it is finished.
