“Void”
Triptych Abstract Paintings in oil

My work focuses on the nature of the void.  Our concept of “Artists Condition” implied a reality in the here and now, what then I asked myself of alternate realities abstracts reachable only through the void, or spaces between the real.  My work is an attempt to drag the two dimensions together.  To begin this journey I researched Mark Rothko and his “multiforms”, his works are a series of colour field experiments seemingly random, complimentary colours blurred together on large canvases.  My work is reflective of this style through five canvases, 3 of which I present here.
