Works
Lakeside
Vicki McFarland explores the emotional response evoked by colour, texture and form. By eliminating the brush from the painting process, Vicki allows her intuition to guide her as she encourages the flow of paint across the canvas. She draws inspiration from nature, from patterns and textures and from music. The final aesthetic of each piece is the result of many layers of paint which interact, obscure and build upon each other. The freedom, emotion and optimism in Vicki’s creative process is reflected in the finished product.
“There is nothing more rewarding than expressing feelings and emotion in a piece of art. My journey is ongoing and my paintings reflect my passion”
