Prior to commencing painting the Artist writes a stream of consciousness to guide the initial mark making process, as written below. 

‘I feel their weight on my skin when I float in my dreams, a presence lingering, chains to a broken wrist.

Why do I love the clouds so?

They float peacefully, riding the pace of a longggg exhale. Sometimes a pant, sometimes a sneeze, sometimes a breath afraid to let go.

They show a notion of collective support, work as one, not against. They amalgamate, break free, when the timing feels right.

They allow me to pause and exhale. What I notice in their shapes gifts me a deeper understanding of my inner landscape. Without the clouds where would I be? Who would i be?

It brings me to tearsssssssssss, salty salty salty tasty tasty tasty fluffy fluffy drapey drippy tears.
