Colour Notes From The HEart

by sally parnis

This body of work started when Australia was burning and has been making its way through the upheaval and uncertainty of the pandemic. It traces gratitude for regeneration, home, family and beauty.

Each work began with an iPad finger drawing or painting made from life. Many were made whilst hurtling along the highway in a car. The iPad drawings are like taking notes and the finger marks embody the time spent immersed in that drawing, searching for colour or form. Some images remain in their original state, others are re-explored as paintings. In many of the paintings, the subject has become the finger marks themselves. In others, quick line drawings about a loved one are filled with colour from memory and imagination.
