In this lyrical abstract by Scott Pattinson generous brush strokes of pale blue, bright orange, soft yellow, light brown, pink, purple and gray float across a white canvas.
By adding thick layers of acrylic paint in complementary colours punctuated by black marks, Pattinson’s expressive work immediately engages the viewer.

“Pattinson plays with the emotional triggers of colours, mostly by slamming together unlikely, even decadent, contrasting hues and then encases those associations, the metonymic readings possible, with harsh, cutting and calligraphic blackish strokes.” R. M. Vaughan, Art Critic
