Artist Statement -



When contemplating creativity, I admit to being impressed by the draftsmanship of Gustav Klimt,the audacity and creativity of Picasso and the fortitude of Artemisia Gentileschi and many other female artists.

The "Lady and the Unicorn" tapestries in Paris move me greatly for their colour and their detail in particular.

I have my own style and language which has developed over the years from experimentation with a variety of mediums and different approaches to my subject matter.
Some things become favourites, contributing to a personal language and the sheer pleasure of creating.

The process is the important thing.
Creativity for the visual artist is all about struggle,excitement and energy.

Artist Publications



AGORA GALLERY - Soho / Chelsea NEW YORK.
An artist whose interests range from abstraction to still life to portraiture, HILARY POLLOCK paints melodious compositions with dulcet colours, unifying her diverse subjects by her heed for the grace and clarity of line work and lucid articulated colour.
Some of her still lifes are quiet contemplative observations of nature domesticated.
With fluid contours and a simplfied realism Pollock's portraits have the same pensive, serene quality as her inanimate representations.
Bouyant in colour and unfettered by gravity, her abstract works describe geometric formations unraveling in space, or nebulous sea forms that glow and undulate in their ethereal environment.
Hilary is a graduate of the National Art School in Sydney Australia.

ARTROM - ONLINE GALLERY - ROME ITALY.
"JUST PAINT" International Exhibition.
An elegant and refined use of colour, the sense of placement, the transparency and veiling technique, the lightness of her brush, the fluidity of forms, the seemingly random, yet studied composition are the elements that distinguish Pollock's work.
