Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
The title of the painting references a book by Harold Bloom that concerns poetry, specifically how the creative process is influenced by reading another poet's poetry. I feel the same about painting and the ambiguous gesture of the woman symbolises that futile search for originality and an avoidance of repetition. This struggle of the gesture is balanced by the stripe of pink. In colour psychology, pink is a sign of hope, a positive color that inspires warm and comforting feelings. Hence the saying “everything is rosy”.

United Kingdom
Born in the UK in Manchester- now working from my Studio in St Ives. My oil paintings explore aspects of MELANCHOLIA using traditional methods of oil paint on canvas and on wooden panels. I work initially from pen and ink drawings that combine elements of my own figurative drawing with my photographs and found images. Working directly onto the support with oil glazes, I use these subverted images as the basis for a loose and immediate style of painting. Consequently the oil paintings have a freshness of execution despite the melancholic themes.
