DAVID PEARCE<br />
My working practice is driven by a desire to<br />
create in a fresh and innocent way, capturing<br />
that zest and excitement of experiencing<br />
something new for the first time. This group of<br />
paintings are a snapshot of the different<br />
approaches I employ, whether figurative or<br />
abstract.<br />
The physicality of a painting as an object<br />
fascinates me. The art is not just in the image.<br />
The work needs to have it’s own unique identity<br />
and be compelling enough to exist by itself.<br />
Imparting inanimate objects (tractors, chairs,<br />
houses or gestural marks) with personality<br />
allows me to explore the viscosity of paint along<br />
with colour and surface in a free and unhindered<br />
way. These aspects are a continual source of<br />
intrigue, enabling the work to remain raw,<br />
evolving and captivating for me (and hopefully<br />
for others!)
