ABSTRACTION

The artist's job is to deepen the mystery'  Francis Bacon

Teresa Lawton: "I walk the beach & every time it is different. The skyline falls into the sea dividing heaven & earth. The Dorset coastline fills my work though I am not concerned with trying to re create it in any representational way. Constructing areas of space with clean lines, interupted by colour is what I concern myself with in my paintings. So, much as the coast and the surrounding landscape supply me with endless inspiration, it is the actual process of painting that is the driving force behind much of my work. For me abstraction gives a unique & personal voice. It is all about the surface and the paint that I love to work with. For me creating balance, simplifying shapes in tone & colour is a meditative process which I am entirely absorbed in. There is much magic in paintings and sometimes they can even sing".
