Drift and Float
After winning the Emerging Art Prize in March 2023 with a similarly muted piece, Santorini Night Swim, I began further explorations in painting with monochrome colour palettes.  
The pieces in this collection are created with expressive mark making and text, overlaid with multiple transparent glazes until I achieve a beautiful depth in colour. 
There are many colours in each piece, however the appearance is of a deep green painting, because of the way I have structured the glazes.
The overall effect intended is of looking through sea water, perhaps to a sandy sea floor.  
Passionate about both travel and sea swimming, most of the paintings in this collection reflect an experience I have had or recall a place I have been.  
Always happy memories.
