Marigold Sky – 16×16″ – Original Artwork

The burst of orange/yellow sunshine in this sunset and soft blue inspired me to create this soothing abstract painting. It will bring vibrancy and a pop of colour to any living room, dining room or hallway.

The process used to create these is through a layering technique. I first apply texture paste to build areas of thick, raised texture. I then use thin layers of paint to build up the different colours and create glazed effects. Each layer is painted and left to dry. I use a combination of brushes and pallette knives to create the various effects.

I never know what the final outcome will be – I choose a limited colour pallette and work from there. The anticipation is exciting and the results sometimes surprising.
