I made the paintings in an improvisational way. I feel and think my way through the work and come across ideas, forms and space as they appear.  In this series I have experimented with mixed media collage techniques combined with painting and drawing processes. This is an attempt to widen associations that can be suggested; for example particular fabrics and objects can initiate different ideas and meanings.  The use of fabric and pins brings a more domestic feel to the work that references materials that are traditionally used by women either in the home.  

I also worked with more figurative imagery. Forms that suggest familiar objects from things that surround us, as such enhancing forms and ideas that appear in the paintings in a type of 'free association'. These are glimpses of influences that filter into the imagination through things I experience in everyday life.
