I am excited by colour, pattern and line and like experimenting with colours and elements which should not work in theory. I enjoy creating harmony from conflicting elements. My work is full of personal meanings: colour combinations I remember, or childhood memories like an old party frock, a sweet wrapper or a garden I saw with different shades of green on a moss lawn. Lately I have been working on a series of 'Bridge' paintings which evolved from the elliptical shapes I had formerly been using. I like the idea of bridge as metaphor to explore relationships to my environment.
