In this work, the artist wanted to explore the intersection of art and interior design.  She took a room as a starting point  and painted a large canvas for that particular space.  She began by painting a traditional sky scene underneath (elements of it are peeping through), then used a large palette knife to work some deep reds, ochres and ivories together , sometimes blending, sometimes separating.  Other processes were used to bring about a crackle effect through the darkest burgundy.  

The artist believes that modern interior design in the United Kingdom is of the highest standard and is such an art form in itself, that she is interested in this next body of work to create paintings for specific places, which are highly designed.  This is the first in that series.

My art is primarily organic abstraction, often portraying surreal and softened landscapes. A dream or nebulous quality marks both transitions and compositions. This is derived from a mode of life, which is rooted in inner stillness. I live in South West France, surrounded by tranquil forests. That quietness of being is what I strive for in my studio. I paint without distraction, so that I can fully connect with what I am creating. The more I can remove myself from the process, the better the work. I only paint in oils as they give such wonderful luminosity and I prefer large scale pieces for freedom of mind.
