As an artist and art educator, I have had many influences in the development of my work including French Impressionism, Russian Suprematism and American Minimalism. These influences have provided a durable foundation to my contemporary creative work.
Throughout art history, artists have employed different techniques to depict changing light and colours. One of the most notable is the French Impressionist, Claude Monet. His painting “La Gare St Lazare,” shows smoke from steam trains billowing inside and outside the train station.
My painting “Shifting Hues,” shows an interior scene with an open void to the outside. Illuminating, aurora like evanescent colours move across, and within the interior space, at times making the edge of the walls disappear and reemerge.
I have used acrylic mediums and spray techniques on canvas. The painting has heavy duty ‘D’ hooks on the back and it would be best attached directly to a wall space corresponding to the two ‘D’ hooks or, a gallery hanging system.
