About My Work - Salliann Putman
Subject matter in my work is far less important to me than the abstract qualities of the painting itself. I am preoccupied with colour, light and space and the relationships of these qualities. Although the subject matter, through light and colour may inspire me, in the end it is my emotional response to the paint itself that is all-important. Much of my work begins with a quick drawing; an immediate response to the thing seen, and then the painting develops from this, memory and imagination playing an important part. I never have a very positive idea about how the final paining will look. As soon as I make a mark, or place a colour, then the paining has its own life and makes its own demands. It is my concern, as a painter to respond to these demands.
