“Shadows, depth & light are all essential to my artworks. They drive my composition and inspire the creation of the finished piece. I like to paint what has been forgotten. I work with absences and silences, and create from the light and shadows that surround me. My process is one of creating, then destroying the painted landscape, but always leaving a footprint of what was there by rubbing back into the work. This is how the layers within my work build up — currently, in some of my works, I prefer to paint with a smaller range of hues and use tonalism within the landscape to create the work. Illuminated by light and shadowed by darkness, the landscapes I paint are transformed by the changing of the light of day. Dawn til dusk. Sometimes my landscapes dance, but in other works the mood is quiet and withdrawn, showing a humbling, and honouring of the beauty in front of me. I want my artwork to convey a journey through hints and layers. Whispers and echoes of memories past — creating a timelessness which is visually engaging; one that provokes elusive, fleeting glimpses into our own psyche.” - Vania Lawson
About 'Stillness': "Spending a winter break in the beautiful south west of WA, I was inspired by the brisk mornings where the mist danced over the paddocks.The morning mist that had rested during the night was still delicately hugging the river until the warmth of the sun came out. I am drawn to paint what has been forgotten and create from the light and shadows that surround me, whilst being inspired by the changing light of day, dawn till dusk and the seasons of our land." - Vania Lawson
