Artist’s do not always draw, paint or even sculpt exactly what they see! Sometimes they use their emotions and feelings to let them guide their process.
Bridie Gillman is a painter. She uses oil paint as well as pastels to make her paintings. She likes to re-imagine the world around her and often paints everyday objects in different and abstract ways.
