My Artistic Practice Peach Mango Maverick is concerned with chronicling and exploration of language. Additionally, it also documents the concept of \u2018journeying\u2019 through time, space and place in parallel with heritage and identify.<\/p>\r\n

After an absence of over 25 years from the arts, my inaugural collection also reflects my journey of artistic recovery. As an artist, my signature style Grande Visual Narrative <\/strong>combines poetic abstraction with abstract painting and uses ArtBooks as canvas; it translates the lived experience of a Windrush child using fine art as storytelling.<\/p>\r\n

Wordcol collusion<\/p>\r\n
illusion<\/p>\r\n
a riot of colour<\/p>\r\n
mixing and blending<\/p>\r\n
lending<\/p>\r\n

succulent orange<\/p>\r\n
citric yellow<\/p>\r\n
tumble stumble<\/p>\r\n
and fall into<\/p>\r\n
metamorphic green<\/p>\r\n
the still of perfect balance<\/p>\r\n
temporary tranquil oasis<\/p>\r\n
favoured by<\/p>\r\n
He<\/p>\r\n
who peace<\/p>\r\n

into the indignant indigo<\/p>\r\n
of imbalance<\/p>\r\n

of violet<\/p>\r\n

screeches<\/p>\r\n
to a shrill halt<\/p>\r\n
