The art
Artist Statement
“This artwork called
‘Blood Red’
symbolizes a young woman
who has lots of natural confidence
and life energy.
The colour red represents
fire, blood, heat and power.
It is also the colour of
romance, passion, youth,
beauty and emotion
- the colour of soul and heart.
I began painting this artwork
because I was inspired by
using bright colours
as tone to create a face.
I love art
(mainly sketching and painting)
because there is so much
chance and variety
in whatever you can make”.
