My recent painting,
Kaleidoscopic, is my most
genuine example of where I
intend to take my paintings by
means of style and subject
matter. The pink under
painting of her hair was part
of my desire to explore and
use colour to portray a sense
of bent reality. The twisted
branches are tipped with
multicoloured autumn leaves
and shrouded with wide staring
eyes that embody the
surrealistic aspect of the
subject’s environment. By
mixing the substances the
worlds of dream and reality, a
reflection of the subconscious
is established. I feel that
this painting was a critical
turning point for my portrayal
of people in their environment
and my creative process. It
was John Lennon’s “Lucy in the
sky with Diamonds,” which
inspired me to experiment with
her eyes and use the whole
spectrum of colour so that she
appears to have “kaleidoscope
eyes.” However the song isn’t
an explanation for the
painting in its entirety, as
its significance goes in other
directions besides Lennon’s
lyrics.
