Vincent Rymer After many years of portraiture, figure drawing and representational landscape painting I felt I needed more of a challenge. Abstraction presents me with endless creative possibilities. Not knowing where the painting will go excites me. Re-presenting different perceptions and realities inspires me to constantly develop a vocabulary and language that is not fixed and is always open to change and discovery.
