CONCEPTUAL EXPLORATION

Bold gestures and repeated forms create a visual rhythm—an echo of voices, overlapping, competing, and fading.

Dualities of colour and form suggest layered meaning, inviting a second look beyond the surface.

Interwoven marks and connected forms speak to presence and absence, unity and space.

My Time is a commission, reflecting the essence of a retreat to the Isle of Iona. The painting captures the island’s rugged beauty through expressive brushwork, rich textures, and a dynamic interplay of colour. Symbolic details are woven into the composition. Blues dominate the sky and water, while the sandy shoreline and rocky terrain add warmth and contrast. A lone figure, subtly integrated into the foreground, contemplates the vast landscape before her, reinforcing the theme of reflection and connection to nature.

Sweeping, turbulent strokes evoke a sense of immersion—movement and depth echoing an emotional undercurrent.
