Hello, I'm Angeline Neville King.
When I paint, I create a narrative as I go. I write it's story on-the-fly. Some of them come easily & present themselves clearly and are easier to convey; others, make me wait a little longer & listen a little harder Some I don't recognise or understand at all - until they have lived in the world for a little time. Then when I know, it makes complete sense where they fit in. My biggest challenge is to not overthink the marks I put on the page but to just let go. I let my choices be guided by music, emotion, instinct and colour. Try to eliminate any hesitation. So what if it doesn't work? Try something else. Play a different song on the stereo. Loudly I'm a lawless artist not guilty of breaking any rules because I don't know what the rules are. I'm a little kid with not enough hours in the day to keep on creating whatever I want. The stories in my head may not be the same as the stories that you see and that's the beauty of 'art' - whatever art it is! Painting, creating, singing, talking, writing, loving, existing, doing the day by day, sleeping, dreaming - the articulation of dreams, always seems futile and frustratingly just out of reach - even to an abstract surrealist. Yet we continue to try; to try & strengthen our connection to each other and to recognise ourselves in the world. Because it makes us feel like we belong somewhere, even if we don't understand why. The answer isn't really that important.
