'I have been working on a series of paintings on paper to quickly explore new visual themes in my creative work. The works shown here represent some of the results of this process. I am using a range of templates, tools and stencils for building the imagery, in addition to exploiting accidental effects of technique.
The results reflect my interest in geometry, drawing and natural forms and structures, as well as a certain tradition within painting, colour and light.'
- Michael Board
