Ursula E. Rettich - Sea to Canvas

Growing up on the small Island of Sylt, hence the studio name "SEA TO CANVAS", a remote place in the German North Sea. It was the nature, the freedom and the mystery of this place what influenced and inspired me: frequently my live and certainly my paintings.

Over time I painted in different styles always pushing forward to get my own character onto every canvas and of course the contents - depending on what live presented to me but I always came back to a free fast brushstroke. This suited me best.

My art is abstract because feelings, dreams, and illusions do not have forms or boundaries. There is nothing more exciting than an empty canvas and the need to use my brush- sponge- pallet knife- etc. to fill it with colors.

I like to give color a certain independence and liberty in my work. I see a picture, say – a landscape – I connect it with my inner emotional space to establish color and shape in my mind but the base of my vision is still the landscape.

What I commit to canvas is an effort to capture both the external picture and my internal response through colour and shape.

Kerrie Warren Abstract Expressionist Action Painter


My aim as an Action Painter is to bypass self-censoring thought and ‘feel’ my way through the creative process. Initially it’s about letting go of having a preconceived idea and simply making a physical and emotional connection with the raw materials as I move, dribble, splatter and throw.
Trusting in the process itself, I work freely in the moment ‘on the floor’ as mark follows mark in a visual domino, creating a series of unplanned scenarios that tantalize my senses from the surface whilst being recorded in the foundational layers of the painting below. 
I’m intrigued and lured in by the organic patterns of random occurrence, the textures and colours that intertwine, communicate and respond with each other… inspiring me to build upon this free flowing composition as a visual narrative forms. 
At this stage instinct is heightened and becomes paramount as I navigate my way around the canvas which has fast become a platform for a new adventure, incessantly calling and drawing me back to the studio.
The focus becomes more and more intense; emotionally and physically consuming me until the painting resonates with a story of its own, finally releasing me from the process.
Such energetic compositions and broad gestures work best on a large scale where they become an interactive visual playground rather than a painting on a wall.
