About the artwork

I chose this pose because it resembles a flower about to open. When I started to work on the painting, the objective was to revert to an earlier time in my art before complexity sneaked in. I wanted to strip the subject down to the bare minimum needed to convey its essence by using only line, shape and colour. I had to resist the urge to add shading and shadows, instead sticking to a two-colour pallet for the figure and using the same solid background I used in "Ontblom 1". The result is close to what a silkscreen print would look like.

"Ontblom 2" is currently on exhibition at FOMO Gallery in Pringle Bay.
