I adore analysing the human form, putting to paper what I see, rather than what I think I see!
Seeing colours in a black jacket. Purples, blues, greens and oranges that make up a person's skin tones.
After years as a graphic designer I am now rediscovering the human form, concentrating particularly on the face. I can find myself suddenly noticing somebody stood in a patch of light, and what I see is beauty –
in everyone!
Nowadays I enjoy painting with watercolours. I love the technique of painting wet in wet, observing the paint flow and bleed giving beautiful textures; colours changing as they are added and as they dry.
