The Process of Conjuring
These works begin by creating the watercolor backgrounds in a random, experimental state of play. I splash clear water onto the paper and then dip and drizzle paint into the already-morphing pools. These swaths of turbulence and sediment are the perfect backdrop to my next layer: a meditative and meticulous field of tiny, saturated marks. I build up the image with felt tip and fine-line markers and the figures fade into sight, emerging from the cool morning fog of paper white.
