My art is the balance of two worlds. The initial world is one of geometry, intellect and order bound by strong craftsmanship. The other world is soft, organic, sensitive and instinctive. These two worlds combined are the foundation of my art, the result of which is the starting point of the viewer’s imagination. Geometry is often thought of as dry but I try to reveal its softer side in my paintings. In emotive geometry, fluid geometrical forms can have a lyrical playful appearance depending on their scale, colour, placement and relationship to the background. Some forms ascend or descend while others merge, giving a feeling of transition.
