Encaustic Mixed Media on gallery wood panel.
"My works come from imaginary landscapes/florals, from memory, from places visited, or sights experienced. They are not meant to depict reality exactly. Rather, I work intuitively and abstractly, exploring with form, marks, colours, and texture. This work incorporates charcoal, ink, pastels and encaustic wax.
As an artist, I like to experiment with different mediums. I rely on intuition and self expression when I paint, pouring my heart into my paintings and getting lost in my own world. I am drawn to bright colours in my work, because colours make me feel happy, and also, it’s probably a reflection from my tropical island upbringing, surrounded by colourful flowers, lush greens, yellow sunshine, and blue skies. I build layers upon layers of paint to create depth and history. The process of adding and subtracting paint is an essential part of my process. Revealing underneath layers, building up new layers, creates different feelings which eventually lead to finished pieces.
I may have an idea in my mind of what I would like to paint at the start, but I am here for the journey and I go with the flow, even if it takes me in a different direction. It is this journey of the creative process that brings me true joy."
