Mosaic for Mental Health 2012

Artspa collaborated in an art event on our last session of last year. On one large sheet of paper we made our mark thoughout the day. Left to dry we then cut the sheet to fit onto squares for the Mosaic for Mental Health fundraiser that will take place at the Craig Gallery, Alderney Landing from October 11th to 28th. Here are a few of our creations!

Rite of Passage

I usually create abstracts between series, it is cathartic; a creative booster and palette cleanser. Strangely, I have not exhibited many of my abstracts, probably because they are more personal and not easily decipherable. I suppose I am known for my florals, horizons and more representational artwork. Abstracts are emancipating. I really enjoy experimenting with different mediums, composition and colour to elucidate the moment of creation.

My favourite abstracts artists include Otto Donald Rogers, László Moholy-Nagy, Paul Klee, Hans Hoffman, Anne Ryan and Jane Frank.

Hope you visit Maples Gallery during the month of January to see a few of mine! Happy New Year.
