dc.description.abstractI have felt the desire to paint free from any naturalistic reference, drawing my subjects from stored subconscious images and impressions. As painting becomes abstract the farther it departs from nature it can, I feel, be closely allied to music. Music by it's very nature is abstract relying on formal elements to attain compositional order. Similarly, abstract art is based on formal elements of organisation because it is not depicting known objects which would partially suggest a composition. I have endeavoured to explore how closely the two arts are allied in other respects. Because both are elusive and untrammelled by objectivity they can be considered superior to other arts which seem to lose impact by transcription into words. Music is essentially an art of time while painting is an art of space.
