Original artwork description
"I began with thinking about watermelons, and their colours, the strong green and pink right next to each other. The next session I was thinking about isolation that was present at the time. Just before painting the third session, I was walking down the street when two teenagers spat in my face unprovoked and rode off on bikes, this was where/when I painted with anger/rage - observing how different moods and thoughts change the work."
About the series: Watery paint is layered over the canvas, sometimes it adds colour, sometimes it subtracts. Whilst undertaking these works the artist would think of a motif; watermelons, horizon lines, sunsets, a single colour, Spring, or feel the emotion he was feeling; anger, relaxation, loneliness, exhaustion. To observe how these thoughts and feelings would change the process and the piece.
