David Lendrum

David Lendrum: Space Journey and Summer Garden 1 and 2, all acrylic on canvas

David Lendrum’s paintings are derived from nature. He is often inspired by the sunsets, clouds or water which he sees on his daily walks near his home. To realise his ideas, he sometimes uses diluted acrylic paint to stain colours directly into the canvas which has been stapled to the floor. When the painting is dry, he transfers it to the wall in order to assess it. If he is happy, he leaves it; if not he develops it further as required. At other times, he works with a primed canvas stapled to the wall and applies the paint with a range of brushes and other tools. His pictures do not literally represent anything too specific but create a feeling and mood. The interpretation of what is represented is left to the viewer.

Helga Joergens

The abstract pictures by Helga Joergens are created spontaneously without premeditated ideas. They develop in the drawing or painting process depending on which medium is used. She begins by drawing lines, marks or colours to indicate a composition and as soon as an idea evolves, she follows the direction in which it takes her. She brings into play sweeping strokes in order to achieve a sense of movement and repeated lines to create a sense of rhythm. She also enjoys using strong vibrant colours and applies them in many variations in order to create richness which makes the pictures shimmer. Her titles express her feelings, thoughts and associations when viewing the works after completion.
