Kearnsy: I'm an artist, currently based in Mudgee. I have recently opened up an exciting new Art Gallery in the heart of town showcasing mine and the local talent. www.churchstgallery.wordpress.com My paintings are a visual documentation of my life's experiences, explorations and influences. With 10 years in the Graphic Design profession, form, colour, and composition play a major role in my work. My art combines these fundamentals with personal attributes such as intuition and emotions. I begin a piece either with a landscape to support a composition or spontaneously which becomes more detailed as the composition starts to show itself. The process involves layering, often using a variety of mixed media. I notice different characters and forms during the process, which I then nurture and allow to develop. I like to take the viewer on a journey across and around the canvas focusing in and out to reveal new elements each time a painting is viewed.
