This is part of my Chroma series, which evolved from the stripes and gradients that began to appear in my previous Spatial Memory series.

It started with the chance to try something new for an exhibition before Christmas - a lovely opportunity to step outside of my current work and ‘play’. I created two very minimal paintings - and despite how it appears, I find that minimal does NOT mean quicker or easier! There is less room for getting things a little wrong, in my opinion. The perfectionist in me can’t tolerate something that looks just a little ‘off’ when you go very minimal, so getting the final result just right is surprisingly time consuming.

I’m often drawn to stronger colour during summer - it must be something to do with the light and what’s going on in the garden. Most of these new paintings have been created during summer. And I’ve been drawn back to colour with its own inherent (but fun) challenges.
