AN APPRECIATION 
OF ENAMEL

ARTIST'S NOTES ON
ENAMEL

 I create these works with the canvas laid out on my studio floor.  In a sense, my entire body is in the work, as I move over the surface whilst pouring the paint. 

Even though there is an element of chance and spontaneity to these works that fascinates me, I have to know exactly what I want and where I’m going when I create them because it is so easy to overwork these paintings and they then become a muddle.

Purity and clarity is what I’m after and capturing an essence of pure energy and directness of form.  The movement, angles and shapes in relation to the flat background is paramount to the overall tension and energy.  Each shape and line I think through carefully before I pour and is decided on prior to the action so that the work appears spontaneous, yet the composition is sound and balanced.

Painting with enamel is fun but its more difficult to work with then one might guess. It dries very quickly and you can't really go back and correct a mistake.
I love the effects of texture and vibrancy of colour of this material. If you place your focal point correctly and place your colours with purpose the work can really pop with energy.
