Arietta series 2

This fluid abstract work on paper is intuitively made with a coloured pencil and acrylic.

The intersecting multi-layered forms create richly worked surfaces that refer neither to narrative or image but develop out of the discourse and physicality of the painting process.

They are influenced by the edge and the grid of the two dimensional picture plane and evoke the liminal space between sensation and memory.
