Artist's Statement - Sculpture & Pond 2012
A Sculpture by a pond was the inspiration for these paintings. The stone sculpture called ‘The Lovers’ is an African sculpture by an unknown artist.
The first painting is representational of the setting where there is a sculpture on a rock ledge and water flowing into the pond below.
The second, a single screen-print where the abstracted image is repeated and then painted to create a repeat motif.
The third is an exploration into abstraction utilising the texture of the canvas.
