Work began in the middle of an Orange winter; I remember coming back from holidaying in the heat of Vietnam; days where I experienced the intense colours of brilliant blue of the sky and ocean and the deep purples/magenta of the bougainvillea climbing up the sides of the buildings. And so in my studio a new palette emerged; warm hot colours that echoed fire and sun; orange/red and yellow. The colours threw up different relationships and variations and so began the dance with pink and orange.
