Key sources of inspiration include: the anatomy, fractals and symmetry of Helianthus, phyllotaxis (the botanical study of the arrangement of leaves, petals and seeds); the harmonious geometry of sacred art (Mandalas etc); and optical effects of Op Art. Medium: collaged gauge hand-painted textures. 28 x 118cm
