Artist Statement:
MY JOURNEY TOWARDS SELF
EXPRESSION AND ABSTRACTION.
I am searching for a way to
express myself through art,
trying to develop a way of
working as an individual which
is essentially my own way of
seeing and doing. I enjoy
drawing and painting the human
figure, and have been striving
for a way to freshen this
classical form of expression.
To this end I have studied the
work of many artists including
Schiele and Klimt. By
experimenting with the figure
and a combination of media and
techniques I hope to express
the human condition and its
interaction with the
environment. I aim to push
the boundaries of the portrait
and life studies using
abstraction to add movement,
drama and life to a static
pose. The figure in the
landscape, or as landscape is
also a re-occuring theme in my
work, as is the enjoyment of
the abstract sculptural
qualities found in nature.
I like to go with the flow,
exploiting the happy accident,
developing and modifying ideas
as I work. My colour palette
can often be arbitrary, with
dramatic colour being used to
express mood and
atmosphere....

Annual Exhibitionist - 2008.
Best Marks for portraiture
must go to Jill Moynan with
Kerry (mixed media), Kathleen

characterful pieces, with
interesting backgrounds too.
