Adrian Lewis

Intimate glimpses of the body often suggest other parts. I am fascinated by how shapes rhyme with or conjure up different forms seen in the human body or natural world.

Images also suggest to me their own possible logic as I am developing them. This pictorial order becomes independent of the logic of any figuration. The different ways in which the surface is marked, and the different emotional suggestions of such marks, constitute an important part of that pictorial order.

The medium of pastel unites colour and drawing in a direct and sensuous action and allowing a fluidity of process, which is important for the desired character of the final image.
