Artist Bio: Helen French |
|
My art is always changing, with the seasons, the natural environment around me, and with the changes in my life. I usually take an intuitive approach to my paintings, drawing on thoughts and ideas from dreams, hopes and desires, expressing my current state of being in my art. The results are complex, largely abstract, although sometimes with vaguely recognisable imagery, always intended to evoke a response, to make the viewer feel something....at least that's the plan. After a lifetime of exploring various media, I'm now most comfortable using acrylics with added touches of other media, collage, textiles, drawing tools, and sometimes bits of nature. |
