Artworks by Chris Kannegieter-Groves

Energetic life drawings and landscape sketches are an important part of my work, yet there is little local reference in my finished paintings. Apart from an occasional lapse into the figurative, the main body of my work is contemplative and increasingly abstract.
My paintings express an ordered interpretation of reality, a delayed response to experience - memories filtered, emotions reflected. What is essential to me is structure, contrast, balance, proportion and subtle colour manipulation.
For some time the circle has been a recurring motif. I wonder whether, after many years, this is still an immigrant's attempt to unite the northern and southern hemispheres!
