Colour my world------.

I paint because I love to paint! I also love colour, it's so

much a part of my world that  my paintings tend to be vibrant with colour.

Sometimes my mood changes and I look at a painting

 and see the colour changing-so the painting above

becomes this:-

The 'Joie de Vivre ' girl is now the 'Sunshine Girl'and I'm happy

with her this way!

As the artist it is my prerogative to alter a painting  if I want

to, and when I do, that painting usually has a symbolic significance

for me. It becomes part of a developing experience, a transition,

and I'm always reluctant to let it go.

So recently, when a friend, who loves Sunshine Girl

wanted it for her daughter, she commissioned me to paint a picture

 in very similar style and colouring. I was happy to do

this, with her daughter in mind, and they both

are really happy with it.-Another Sunshine Girl

has been created.

I love painting in this relaxed way.

For me so much of the joy of  art

lies in the way it gives so much scope to the imagination,

and allows for fluidity, creativity,inspiration,

freedom, and a completely individual interpretation

on the part of the viewer.

Painting for me  has to be fun! Nothing too orthodox or confined,

rather a spirited animation that bubbles up

and I hope conveys itself

to those who take the paintings.

Only positive vibes!
