Overview
"I am very much influenced by my own personal experiences, often putting a blank canvas before me and seeing which story it wants to tell.”
Nathan Paddison’s paintings are experiential, raw and drawn from a troubled past. Gestural marks and a indistinct language known to the artist form an expressionistic dialogue. Nathan’s strong line and approach to palette meld closely with the physicality and urgency in which he works. The impatience and powerful language forming in Nathan’s work is akin to compulsion rather than task.
“I use many different mediums such as acrylics, enamel, fabric, newspaper, marker and pastels. I believe that working in a single medium is restrictive to my artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style. I don’t know the result until it shows me and comes to life."
