The power and beauty of us standing together. Pink is still thought of as a female colour, so for this exhibition I used pink as my base. I have used strokes of different colours, shapes and sizes showing how differences add to the overall beauty. I love the gold, initially seeming so different, once applied I think it makes this special. I wanted to try a new painting style with this one. I practiced many colour and size options. At first I wondered if the angled ‘rows’ needed ‘fixing’, then decided that perfection is not what we’re about. The imperfections are part of us and what we are.
