  • Inspiration and response depend on many things. Your emotions, your health, even your worries. I paint from my inner self, no more than with this painting. My inspiration was a picture of silk cushions in lush colours. The finished picture was pleasing but lacked a certain something. I turned the image around and suddenly the dancer leapt from the page. By allowing free reign to my inner self, and not trying to control my output, I had created the image I had wanted without realising.
