The paintings I produce are an expression of a personal aesthetic involving line, form, texture and colour.<\/p>\n<p>Watercolour is my chosen medium because of its ability to make both dense, opaque marks and transparent, stain-like marks. Once applied to the paper, I can manipulate and erode the paint with water. This creates deliberate effects and random, found effects. I hope that after seeing my work viewers have an expanded idea of what watercolour can be.<\/p>\n<p>As an abstract painter I take my inspiration from the ephemeral such as shadows, stains, marks on flat concrete and aleatory patterns. A further source of inspiration has been the way x-rays, ultrasound images and photographic negatives portray reality. From the world of art, I have been influenced by Abstract Expressionism, East Asian ink painting and Japanese ceramics&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>February 9 &#8211; 26, 2012<\/strong><br \/>\nArt Party: Thursday, February 9,  7 &#8211; 9 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WELLINGTON STREET ART GALLERY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My goal as an artist is to create work that is visually striking and intellectually and emotionally challenging<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/?p=7390\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7391,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7390","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-listings_archive"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7390","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7390"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7390\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7839,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7390\/revisions\/7839"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7391"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7390"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7390"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7390"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
