About the artwork
This vibrant, large abstract painting grew out of a slow process; it was built over many layers of paint creating a beautiful deep texture. The starting point for this piece has been a strong colour scheme of different hues of blue and red. The playfulness of the painting attempts to capture a mood of playfulness, joy and anticipation. I enjoyed bold brush strokes, palette knife work and more detailed mark making in this piece. I mixed my own paint with many different hues of whites, red, pink and blue greys. The canvas has been painted around the edges in a complementary colour. Hooks and cord are attached at the back – the painting is ready for hanging. The painting comes with a signed certificate of authenticity. Please note that the image of the painting in a home interior is for demonstration purposes only and not to scale.The Touch of Joy

After a long career in higher education I discovered two new passions in my life in 2006: art and psychotherapy. I retrained as a therapist and have been continuously working towards improving my artistic output ever since that ‘Eureka’ moment. The most obvious connection between these two professions is the preoccupation with emotions. In my therapeutic work I talk about emotions; in my art I aim to translate emotions into visual markers on canvas.
