Many of the elements in this painting are enhanced by a desire to explore the way light in space, either imagined or real, enhances the compositions I allow myself to glimpse. This could be the bright harsh light that makes colours pop or a shimmering hazy light, recognisable from time spent in brighter sunnier parts of the world, California, India, Sri Lanka and Cyprus, The way it soaks its surroundings and makes the paintings vibrate, creating a resonation with this movement and moment, this creates an observation of the world through an imagined place, a playful space that translates into my own vocabulary on canvas
