DL Watson

Artist Statement:

My work is one of action and reaction, a response to my emotions, thoughts and mood at the time of it's creation. Rarely is there a plan or concept of the final outcome. It is about the process for me as this is the time when I can freely express myself without judgement or anxiety. I continue this process, reacting and acting as the process continues and my need for expression is content for the moment.
