Velvet Room

When I painted the velvet room I was in a place of artistic anger. I was mad with the way I was approaching art and decided not to be so held up about it. I was intent on creating a loose figure with a combination of light and heavy strokes that depicted a dark and moody figure. I think she’s not real, but the amalgamation of different images and colors that you see when the world gets a little heavy.

Creativity is a wonderful form of self expression, that allows me to paint the images I see in my head. The moody visuals that appear when something’s peaked my interest. I feel free when I paint not caring about artistic rules I’ve learnt, but the way art makes me feel.
