oils with oil pastels on canvas

This is the fourth in a series of ‘Nebula’ inspired paintings, each with its own personality, size and colour palette. I was drawn to the idea of using the Nebulas’ due to the fascinating colour combinations and shapes. I paint in the abstract but prefer my paintings to still represent something tangible, as opposed to a group of colours and shapes on the canvas.  Originally from Sydney, I came to live in The Valley 14yrs ago, and quickly learned, that whilst it looks peaceful and calm on the outside, nothing stands still in The Valley!! There is always something happening, just moving at a slower pace… Happily, my work has found a following, and I have enjoyed sharing space in several combined exhibitions in the village.
