My submission for this exhibition is a selection of paintings in the abstract mode, this is the sort of work that interests me the most.
It is my preference to paint with non-representive figures and shapes with a vibrancy of colour all around the canvas.
If you look as hard as you can, There may be segments that may have an uncanny resemblance to faces and/or facial features such as eyes etc. hidden amongst all the carnival of abstract shapes.
During the making of this project, I created as many as between 10-15 paintings and what you see in the exhibition is just some of the pieces I feel were my favourites of them all.
Many of these works were painted with oil paints but I initially painted with acrylics to start off with but in regards to which paints worked the best, I would say that oil paints blended a lot easier colourwise yet the drying takes days compared to just hours with acrylics.
As an autistic person (I.E. Aspergers), I’m not very confident of expressing myself verbally and personally thus a lot of my work is improvised sans any advanced planning nor any significant meaning.
I had felt that I have improved with my way of making art in the three years I have been at Cardiff metropolitan university’s fine art course, especially with finding some kind of my own voice in my paintings
Detholiad o baentiadau yn y modd haniaethol yw fy nghyflwyniad ar gyfer yr arddangosfa hon, dyma’r math o waith sy’n fy niddori fwyaf.
Fy newis cyfrwng yw cael peintio drwy ddefnyddio ffigurau a siapiau anghynrychiadol â lliwiau llachar o gwmpas y cynfas i gyd.
Os edrychwch mor galed byth ag y gallwch, gallai fod yno rannau a fydd yn debyg i wynebau a/neu rannau o wynebau megis llygaid ac ati ynghudd ymhlith yr holl garnifal o siapiau haniaethol.
Wrth lunio’r prosiect hwn, fe wnes i greu rhwng 10 a 15 o baentiadau ac mae’r hyn a welwch yn yr arddangosfa ond rhai o’r darnau roeddwn yn teimlo oedd fy ffefrynnau o’u plith nhw i gyd.
Cafodd llawer o’r gweithiau hyn eu peintio â phaentiau olew ond yn wreiddiol fe wnes i beintio gyda phaent acrylig ond, o ran pa baent weithiodd orau, fe ddwedwn fod paentiau olew yn ymdoddi i’w gilydd lawer yn haws o ran y lliwiau ond bod y broses sychu yn cymryd diwrnodau o’i gymharu ag oriau yn unig gyda phaentiau acrylig.
Gan fy mod yn berson awtistig (h.y. Aspergers), dw i ddim yn hyderus iawn yn mynegi fy hunan ar lafar, felly mae llawer o’m gwaith yn fyrfyfyr heb unrhyw gynllunio ymlaen llaw nac unrhyw ystyr arwyddocaol.
Rwy’n teimlo i mi wella yn fy ffordd o lunio celf yn y tair blynedd rwyf ar gwrs celfyddyd gain ym Mhrifysgol Metropolitan Caerdydd, yn enwedig o ran cael hyd i ryw fath o lais fy hunan yn fy mhaentiadau.
