Statement
Graeme Swanson describes his painting process as a form of visual narrative, like imaginary adventure stories.
He likes to convey the joy of discovering new places, the aura of ancient or historical sites by visually describing the atmospheric effects, the contrasting moods of the weather, the natural and man made patterns on the surrounding landscape through building, spreading and wiping paint and then working back through layers, in order to reveal hidden stories beneath.
He creates more surface and colour to explore new avenues and directions giving the previous expressions of these works a new visual story.
