"My Gora Zebra works create three distinct rhythms throughout the painting.
Loaded brushstrokes of watercolour are applied in transparent bands of colour that sit in different spaces depending on how much pigment or pressure is applied. I like to think of these brushstrokes like bands of elastic that push and pull the tension in the painting in different directions. The graduated colour allows the spaces to weave in and out between each other. As shadows are created light flickers throughout the painting.
Spots of separated colour create different rhythms through the painting which is then further punctuated by black and white lines that zig-zag across the surface."
