An inspiration for this series was the arrival of the comet Neowise which flew by Earth in mid July 2020. It will return in 6,800 years. An icy space rock visible to the naked eye all night and early mornings, I could see it from my studio window . I was fascinated by this white glow of compacted ice hanging in the same spot for a few weeks. Then suddenly, one evening, it was gone! I felt sad – I wanted to hitch a ride and explore the universe. My Electric Storm paintings express my journey across the skies. They are also inspired by storms, sheet lightning and thunder, so much noise and discord.
