La Macina di San Cresci

“Artists are interesting creatures. We can be obsessive, dedicated, spirited and single minded in our pursuit for that perfect realisation of our art. We tend to be outsiders and are often that square peg in the round hole, so when you find an oasis like San Cresci you hold on tight -- for it’s that sense of belonging which welcomes you.”

When I walk into my studio, I become totally lost in the vibrancy and energy of the colours that I work with. I move into a dimension that is away from the reality of day to day life, I enter a space where I connect to my soul and I am guided by an unknown hand that creates my paintings. My inspirations are colour and music, the earth that is so beautiful, the hearts of children and the air that we breathe. I love the process from start to finish. I enjoy stretching and priming my canvases, because to me it is all part of the creation. I absolutely love mixing and preparing my paints. I work mostly with acrylic paints and many gel mediums as I experiment with texture.
