Recent small works - Hidden

In my practice I use colour and form to create space on the canvas, the ability to create the illusion of space on the flat surface still fascinates me. In the recent Hidden series I have been looking at the idea of obscuring the view of that space, making you want to duck your head around to see what it hidden behind. They are little paintings that themselves are small enough that they might become hidden in the gallery space.
