Problem solving

I find painting a continuous problem solving exercise. What am I trying to convey? A feeling of place? An emotion? A feeling of mystery? Or beauty? Maybe all of those? It is so complex at times and the answer not always easy to solve.

I am not seeking accurate representation as it does not interest me, I seek a less obvious, ethereal idea. In a world of technology it’s so amazing to produce something so nebulous and other worldly.

Here are some of my latest paintings in the Santorini night time series, going to have fun naming these individually later.
