Figurative Abstract Approach to the canvas
Figurative Abstract Paintings on canvas with collage and graphics
Cabaret Gypsy
The marriage of the abstract images with the illustrative is fascinating for me. I am now creating Figurative Abstract paintings.
~Sumptuous surfaces~
~meandering compositions~
~sensuous color and texture~
~A bit sultry and a bit of the Dark Side~
I am a seasoned figurative painter and am now experimenting by incorporating the faces, places and figures into the abstracts, or actually visa versa.
The random play and placement of the collage and paint is first, then with my non dominant hand, I do a line drawing of the subject
What happens next is magic, impossible to explain
“Stepping up to the easel without references or preconceived ideas is a thrilling experience for a seasoned painter. “Just Experiment I tell myself!” Now I am incorporating a figurative element back into the non-objective surfaces which is pure ecstasy. Keep watching
to see the development.” All paintings are available for purchase on my website.
” Paintings develop a life of their own. They lead me in the journey of the work, not the other way around. So exhilarating.
