About my work, to explain is very difficult but I will try to as I don’t understand it myself but what I do know is it comes and goes in energy bursts.. there are days where I feel flat like a guitar string that is dead the note is flat and dull. Then a state of despair as I long to paint and create… for a while I dig deep into myself fighting through the darkness till I win the battle and a super charged light comes over me where I just start, tied to music it is like a dance where it flows, the notes are perfect, the rhythm and beat keeps going and doesn’t stop, the colours just become bright like a rainbow the strokes are free. I don’t think or plan I just keep dancing to the beat of my heart, a mass overflow of emotions pour out onto the canvas, I cry with pain, hurt and confusion. The struggles in life that I have experienced and endured sometimes reveal itself to me. Then I feel overwhelming joy, love and freedom, I connect to my Creator as if I have been given supernatural gifts and blessings which have been poured over me in that moment. I am so grateful when I see the the artwork it doesn’t even make sense to me how or what happend but it is so amazing that I created this piece that to me is a message from out of this world.. I try to understand what it means, uncovering layers and depth each time I look at what’s on the canvas and it makes me feel like this is my world my safe place that brings me peace, my place for my thoughts away from this world. I am stunned and wonder where did I get this talent, it just happened and keeps happening but I’m grateful that I have uncovered this new world. A place that is real and close to me. I hope that it has meaning for others as it has meaning for me.. the accomplishment is satisfying. I then go back, I think about what needs to be added each night until I’m satisfied it is done, sometimes I think it is done but I go back… it is always open as I grow and learn I add to the song. I then go back, reflect, waiting for it to repeat, I want the cycle to begin immediately but I must go through it again, where I need to fight the battle to get back to the place where I am bursting with the light that it overflows onto the canvas once again.
