Because I love manipulating and sewing into paper I was inspired to go beyond the usual minimal ‘diptych’ hard board panel format provided and made an extension of it by creating an artist book with inserted pages and joined altogether.
Once work is submitted, the Gallery staff close all the hinged diptych panel boards with a wax seal and hang, ready for the audience to open and reveal the ‘Hidden Treasures’ on the exhibition opening night. Some works have extra surprises like vouchers enclosed within them.
Threads, X’s, vessels, grid formats, layers and colours, all form part of my archetypal expressionist symbolism.

My “creative art practice” may be be succinctly summed up in the following fantastic metaphorical quote by Kandinsky:
~ “Colour is the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key then another to cause vibration of the soul.”

I like the thread in combination with the paint. Yes, beautiful.
Thankyou FeeBeeDee. I’ve done a lot of exploration work over the years with this combination which culminated in my last solo.
I enjoy the physicality of pushing a needle and thread thru rag papers, canvas & fibrous materials, the mediative rhythms it offers while producing 3D linear ‘markmaking’ trails.
