ARTIST'S STATEMENT

My self- portrait is included in the piece with the many faces. I identify myself with the red painted face.
While I am engaged in my work, the use of paint symbolises my emotions where my sketches shows
my thoughts. To be able to use varieties of styles , I explore the endless avenues allowing myself to become
open and share my creations with others.

To be self taught and see
what others do not inspires my
raw emotions
Art is what I love and it is
what I know
All I want to do is show
my work
I stop myself, don't ask why
the answer you don't want to hear
I suffered for my art and mastered
the art of suffering, the pain of pen
to paper
It's not what I do or what I see
It's the power of emotional creation
emily mooney , November 2001
