Phillipa Blair




Phillipa Blair is an artist who was born and educated in New Zealand but who lives and works in the United States (San Pedro, California).



She is an abstract expressionist and gestural painter – whatever that means.  She often paints on unstretched canvas.  One of the first works of hers I saw was one called “Heart Cloak”.  I couldn’t find an image of it but this one called “Heart Book” is based on a similar idea.  You can hang it in a variety of ways.



I think the reason I like her work is the colour rather than the subject matter.
