An idea for a painting comes to me on a mountain or in the garden. But then what I have in mind generally takes a very different form to what was intended. So I try not to plan anything and enjoy the process instead.
Ruth Le Roux is an abstract painter. In her practice, Le Roux aims to distill the essence of mountains, rocks, plants and water - into simplified shapes, capturing their inherent beauty and energy. Her paintings have two layers - a first, expressive and messy layer of acrylic paint and then a second containing restrained meditative mark-making in white paint. The result is something mostly unplanned.
Formally untrained, Le Roux started painting 8 years ago when she was pregnant with her first child. She recently moved to Cape Town, South Africa after living in San Francisco for 10 years.
