Please Do Touch
Touch is my favourite sense. I love the feel of supersoft fabric, the crunchiness of stone and gravel, the dry sandiness of cement, the silken flow of a new leaf, the oily smoothness of a rose petal….and I love to feel these in contrast.
The rule that art should not be touched is a barrier — a false and forced separation between the artist and the viewer. And it is a rule I yearn to break into bits every day. My Mixed Media art is meant to be touched, explored and understood with the fingers as much as the eyes.
