My Other Half Has Paint on Her Hands continues the evolution of my Fractured Harmony series — a body of work rooted in the interplay between structure and spontaneity, contrast and cohesion, organic shapes and geometric forms. In this piece, layered colour fields, translucent veils, and energetic gestures build a composition that shifts fluidly between precision and play.
Hard-edged bands intersect with intuitive marks, while scraped and sanded passages reveal traces of earlier layers beneath the surface. These moments of revelation and concealment echo the collage origins of the series, now reimagined entirely through paint.
The title speaks to the sense of multiple creative selves working together — the instinctive maker, the analyst, the explorer — each leaving their imprint on the surface. What emerges is a lively, multi-voiced composition with rhythm, movement, and a feeling of joyful collaboration within the self.
Collectors who appreciate layered abstraction, bold colour relationships, and subtle textural surprises will find much to explore here. The painting invites sustained looking: the longer you sit with it, the more connections, contrasts, and harmonies reveal themselves.
