Artist Statement
Reason is a fragile vessel, all too often skewed by the things we exclude from consideration, such as our emotions and intuition.
I use texture and colour as a way of breaking down our sense of identity with intellect and form and reconnecting us to the sacred whole to which we all belong. I begin with a drawing, adding a number of digital layers until I feel I’ve reached a point of completion, or alternatively I work with fractal images, layering them into complex composite designs.
As a culture we seem to have lost our sense of wonder and excitement about the nature of life. The process of creating these pieces inspires these things in me, and I hope to share them with you through my work.
To see a selection of my work grouped into series, my bubblesite is here . Please bubblemail me if you’re interested in a signed and numbered limited edition print or a custom made calendar or T shirt. My first book, Fractal worlds: a journey into vibration and light is available here
I belong to Worldwide Women Artists Online, an international collective of women artists showing and selling our work online. For more original art direct from the women who create it, search WWAO.
