My work is all about the process. Life is a process of becoming and my art practice is a mirror or metaphor for life and so for me it is endlessly intriguing. I follow the process, trusting where it will lead me, which can be nerve-wracking at times, hugely challenging but usually worth it in the end when I reach some kind of harmonious resolution. 
I want to give you, the viewer the possibility for your own interpretation, for you to take responsibility for and appreciate your own viewpoint, I hope my work allows for that. After all at the end of the day art is an illusion, a flat surface with paint put on it in such a way that one 'sees' something that we give meaning to, an illusion that illuminates us.

'Art is a lie that makes us realise the truth' - Pablo Picasso.

I find the search for meaning intriguing, how we turn a shape into a face or a square into a house.  I see the possibility for healing in painting, either through the act of painting itself or from looking at art. The vibration of colour is something that penetrates into the brain and which has an emotional and physical impact. I want to bring light into the world, there is too much darkness already. The darkness, the shadows bring a complexity and richness to life which can become habitual and addictive. Seeing the light, literally understanding - that life is beautiful, a joyous dance; that is intriguing and something I wish to experience and express through my art.

I would like to thank all the collectors who have bought my work and have enabled me to carry on painting. Your support is invaluable to me and I hope that my work brings you a lifetime of pleasure. All of my paintings are for sale. Please contact me if you would like a price list or if you have any questions about my work. I want you to be happy with your purchase and seeing a painting in the flesh is different to seeing it online. Therefore I will give you a full refund if you decide that you are not delighted with your choice.

"I have been looking for the perfect pieces for my new counselling room for some time. I wanted something unique, made with care and expertise, to bring the room to life ... I got exactly that. When I found Tessa's work I was spoilt for choice among the many beautiful paintings, all of which have a lovely spirit. 
What I love most about Tessa's work is how the paintings take you on a creative journey into your own memories and conjure up a really somatic experience. The colours work amazingly together. I am so happy to have these pieces on my wall and would highly recommend Tessa if you are looking for excellent quality art work. She is friendly, easy to communicate with and delivery was really very efficient. Thank you Tessa!!"
