Exploring the physical representation of boundaries, fusion, separation and rejection in mark-making, my intention is to represent the cycle of  consequences, (attributed to Lao Tzu, Buddha and Gandhi). This
artwork illustrates TRUST, as the cohesive element at the centre of
identity, relationships and organisations.
I will continue to work at drawing the invisible by experimenting with materials, surfaces and scale, sketching en plein air, life drawing, and learning about physics.
