Eleven circles of thick matter float on a sage-green ground, like planets or stones polished by time. Some are dark earth, almost black; others gleam in bronze and copper; two keep the green of the ground, as if the canvas were breathing through them.
The modelling paste, worked with a palette knife, gives each circle a rough surface that changes with the daylight — in the morning it looks like stone, by late afternoon like metal. Small drips of paint run between the shapes, a reminder that all of this was made by hand, layer by layer. A 100 × 60 cm work made to be the centrepiece of a room.

About the artist
Painting came into my life several years ago. I taught myself, with a little guidance from a painter friend, and gradually discovered the joy of creating through experimenting.
I create freely. Everyone is free to find their own story in what I paint.
