Sweet Retreat will be Christine's 12th solo exhibition at Art2Muse Gallery.
“I am delighted to present my 12th Solo Exhibition with Art2 Muse. I read my paintings like a diary of memories, current thoughts and wanderings. In the current climate an overwhelming desire for peace, a welcome retreat into my studio haven to create and insulate from external chaos. I collate a collection of photos as a record or note of the fleeting thought. I have immersed myself in the balanced Japanese compositional techniques of Notan, the serenity of woodblock printing and the influence these techniques have had on Australian artists Margaret Preston and Cressida Campbell. A Celebratory trip to Seoul to seek the highly coloured and stimulating contemporary art, enabled me to pull all these disparate influences into my paintings and make them my own, a mix of abstraction and reality.“ - Christine Webb
