My body of work, Still, explores my family heritage through a still life series representing different sheds which have stood through many generations. The subjective use of watercolour is subtly influenced by Monet’s impressionist style, as my intent was for the colours to trigger an emotional response related to time and place. For me the colours evoke emotion by bringing life back to abandoned buildings which hold a strong place in my childhood memories and family history.
