Christine Thompson
I am an acrylic and mix media abstract artist.
​
The intuitive approach is a process of allowing each layer of paint to inform what comes next.
​
This leads me to being attentive to expressing personal and social emotions felt deeply as we all face an uncertain future.
​
This keeps me in the present moment and I may paint over the intense underpainting as if adding a healing balm to calm and balance the painting to show that we each do have a path forward together in complete alignment with the spirit of the beautiful creative Earth.
​
It is my hope that the viewer pauses and is drawn in to feel what is important for them to be inspired and to care. I find it so intriguing to learn what each sees and love hearing these responses to the art as it opens my eyes further to the unlimited ability of this method of communication when words sometimes are not enough.
​
In these times I would encourage everyone to cultivate their intuition. One is not able to access intuition by the intellect but intuition can access the intellect as a marvelous tool. The best composition of ideas and knowing flow from intuition and, as we embrace new models for living, I think it is a worthy practice of engagement.
