Notes from an Easel-Ghost of a chance


I'm in love with this piece.
For me, it encompasses the essence of this series-the collision between the physical and unknowable.
And the paint is taking on a life of its own-I'm almost a slave to the strokes my hand is making.
In a fit of inspiration, I decided to create a thick impasto of glued applique, to give it some textural form. I wanted the form to seem visceral, as if it was materialising from some ectoplasmic matter.
