peterfelton: . I am an artist. I paint and make digital images. . I believe Paintings are illusions. Paint is applied to the flat surface to create the illusion of form and space often to depict something real. My Abstract illusions, which are often confusing and difficult to ‘read’, allude to forms and spaces but ones that invite interpretation by the viewer. Interpretations that will, because each viewer is different with different life experiences, be individual and different each time the painting is viewed. No one interpretation will be any more valid or correct than any other; there is no right or wrong answer to the puzzle that the image may pose. I began working on the computer with digital images as a way to develop different forms.As with my earlier work, I usually begin with the human figure in the form of a photograph or a drawing. But unlike my early work, some of the work has remained figurative.I still believe this work requires the viewer to bring their own interpretation to the images as they are never exactly what they seem
