This collection is of Intuitive impressionistic abstracts born of high energy and playing with a multitude of glorious materials.
Nothing is more enjoyable than the process of playing with multiple materials and techniques, to produce works that speak to me, I feel I am helping the materials to find their cohesiveness together to tell their story. The process is mostly quick and high energy, other times they need to rest before coming together into a piece that makes sense to me. I work on several pieces at once letting them bounce off each other to find not only contrast but sameness within. I want the viewer to see the joy I had in creating the piece.
About Natalie Hill
I’m most passionate about play, I’m a mixed media artist, nothing beats going into my studio and seeing what’s around me and being inspired. I use a lot of different materials, my process involves reaching for whatever tool, material or particular colour that is calling to me at any given time. I love to experiment with new techniques.
It’s satisfying when a piece comes together as it wants to, I let the work speak to me and we go off on journeys together to create abstracted landscapes and images.
