ARTIST STATEMENT
“Forest walk” emerges from a dark charcoal background. Graphite trees and a human appear while the monster moss creature in watercolour with pink flowers and red roses grow along the sides and background, contrasting the graphite trees placed along moss creature’s spine. The black background is to represent the unknown risk we take when traveling forward in life, whereas the colourful moss monster shows how frightful things can be. The man halts when he sees moss creature, he is taken aback seeing the colours in front of him, sometimes we just need to bring ourselves to a halt.
ARTWORK PROCESS
Utilising a range of media the fantastic creatures unleashed by my imagination are given friendly power through the contrast of colour and monochromatic areas of the artwork.
