Purple haze

I continue to paint when I can, I’m currently immersed in purples and the scent of lavender. I’m experimenting with scale, colour combinations and printed collage papers. I’ve been reading about surface pattern design, which is where I began at art college at sixteen-years-old, and it seems to be inadvertently having an influence on the painting compositions. I’m having fun! Here is a little peak at the work in progress.
