Since childhood my favourite colour has been red, in all it's variations. To me it represents warmth and also stop! Like the traffic lights. But it is also the colour of lipstick and rouge. Plums, beetroot, apples, onions, rhubarb, berries. I know I will be planning a Blue Series as this Red Series subsides. My paintings can be loud but also have subtilies and secrets. Red is the weak force in nature where as blue can start a current. I use Japanese brushes which square off this 'organic form' as I go over it until it feels right.
