One of my favourite musicians was Freddie Mercury, there will never be another like him, he was just fabulous! I hope that you enjoy the video I have chosen here, a good one to listen to while you browse my art blog to and learn more of my own artistic journey ........

coldplay - fix you

2007-09-12T00:45:00.001Z

This particular track meant an awful lot to me during the time my dear late brother Grant was terminally ill, the words just resonated with how I was feeling at the time, I wanted so desperately to "try to fix him" and make him well again, I loved him so much and still do.

That is one thing I have realised since Grants death almost 2 years ago, that love never dies and you always carry the love with you in your heart and in your memory.

I hope you will enjoy reading about my journey as an artist with all its ups and downs, and follow your own dream, whatever that may be..........

Lorraine invites you to follow her journey this far and wants to encourage each one of us to "Follow your dream" The Journey Within
My Story so Far!

Hello, my name is Lorraine Huber and thanks to the encouragement of a friend, I'd like to share a little of my story with you. I believe that my abstract paintings today are a part of an expression of the real me, they come from within. They are part of an emotional and spiritual journey that started quite a while ago (I'll keep you guessing as to how long!).

Early Childhood - Aberdeen and Beyond
My Mum and Dad are both Aberdonians, and I was born in Aberdeen, living in Torry, old Aberdeen, until my Dad transferred with his job to Birmingham, when I was a toddler. We lived there until I was seven. I have fantastic memories of my early years, and as far back as the age of two I remember I wanted to draw and paint and was never happier than being surrounded by paper, pencils, and paint. I loved to draw people and use very bright colours.

I remember spending hours happily painting, or making collages out of all sorts of bits of card and materials my Mum would save for me. It is strange this creative artistic urge! None of my family on either side were at all artistic. My Mum encouraged me though, recognising that I had this innate gift, and just happy that it made me happy.

I remember my primary school teacher Mrs White, also encouraging me, artistically. She persuaded me to enter the National School's Painting Competition.
I was so excited to have won in my age group, and this meant a trip on the train, all the way up to London to the Trafalgar Square Gallery, to see my work hanging there, along with the other winners. At the age of seven, the event is indelibly printed on my memory. There was so much fuss, important looking people all dressed up; photographers taking photos. The memory of seeing tears in my Mum's eyes, and Dad proud too, but in a more Aberdonian reserved way! The highlight for me though was that one of the prizes was winning my Raleigh Bike. I had it for years afterwards and it gave me loads of fun. I was quite a tomboy then.

Teens and Beyond in Kent and Sussex When I was seven, we moved again as a family, to Kent, where I spent my life, until my mid twenties. Painting was in me and I continued to be creative all through my school years, being put forward by my secondary school teachers, for all sorts of exhibitions and awards (although in my teens I was very shy and tried to resist as I didn't like the limelight). Most of my teens were taken up with more normal distractions, loud rock music, concerts, fashion and boyfriends!

However, I survived my teens relatively unscathed, & I went to college in Eastbourne, Sussex, and studied fine arts, painting sculpture & ceramics. What I really discovered from this diverse experience, was just how fantastic it was to discover other artists and their inspiration; also I developed a great love of working with clay. I just found it so fantastic getting my hands in it and making some weird 3D sculpture; that set me off on a different way of looking at things, in the round. Many years later, I used these experiences in establishing The Loft Pottery & Gallery in 1994. The intervening period had its highs and lows.

After college - the poor student desperately trying to hold onto some creative urges - rude awakening: I had to eat (sad but true!) What followed were several years in the real world as my Dad says, doing a series of jobs; to which I wasn't really suited, but it paid the rent. In between I studied a theology diploma (weird!) and that set me off in another direction, working in the community in caring jobs, which I found challenging, frustrating at times, but rewarding. Inside though, my creativity was being stifled, either because of life itself just the business!

In my late twenties I started to paint again, then it just flowed, my early confidence returned, as I painted nearly every day, selling my work in small galleries and through commissions. My work at that time was mainly representational, landscapes and figurative drawings, in watercolour and pen & ink. I wasn't working as an artist full time then, not for quite a few years later, until a turning point came. Life is full of surprises!

Twists and Turns
The wake up call for me in my journey, came firstly around thirty, then again in my late thirties. I experienced something which was totally out of my control; I had two serious illnesses which almost brought me to the point of death. I am happy to say that it wasn't my time and for whatever reason, I'm still here! (I feel a Woody Allen joke coming on, no perhaps not!)
The experience of going through a lot of pain, suffering and loss, and facing my own mortality changed me, I hope for the better. I don't want to sound preachy here, but I found that I discovered how precious life really is, and what pleasure there is in the love of those you love and simple things like a walk in the woods with the dogs, all the ordinary, lovely things I took for granted. I also realised I needed to be true to myself and use what I believe is the gift I have been born with, to paint & create and hopefully to share with and encourage others. Today the Journey Continues in Scotland
I have been living near Edinburgh for almost twenty years. I am now fulfilling my dream as a full time Abstract Artist, working from my small studio, exhibiting and selling my work worldwide. I have had many solo and collaborative exhibitions throughout the UK. I also undertake commission work.

I just love to paint, now I just can't stop, it is as if a tap has been turned on inside me, or perhaps that I feel I have been given the permission I needed to just be me, rather than what I perceived I had to be! Today, it helps me tremendously to have the encouragement of my loving, supportive husband, who knows how to handle my artistic temperament and give me a reality check when I need it!

My works today are a far cry from the early representational work, they are far more liberated, more fluid, largely abstract expressionist in style. I work mainly in acrylics and mixed media on canvas, board or paper. I love using acrylics as they dry quickly and this suits my spontaneous (impatient) working methods. I work on several pieces of works at a time often putting a canvas away, then coming back to it with fresh eyes to put the finishing brushstrokes. That's often the hard part for me; when is a work complete?

Today, I'm continually thrilled to explore the beauty of colour, for its own sake and shape and texture to express complex emotions. I am trying to express what is inside me; my own emotions, and thoughts, my own spirituality if you like.

I hope you'd like to look at my works on my abstractloft website and that you will feel some of the excitement and mystery I do. I don't have all the answers, just trying to ask some of the questions. The one thought I would like to pass on is this - follow your dream!

Thank you for taking this journey with me, perhaps you know me a little better now. I'd be happy to hear from you, you may contact me via my email link on my website.

INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHTS for 2006 by LORRAINE G HUBER

Inspirational Thoughts as we Approach 2006 by Lorraine G Huber

Often as I watch the news I find myself becoming overwhelmed by all the sad and upsetting events in the world and it is sometimes hard to keep a hold of all the great things that are also happening in our lives. This year has been a particularly sad year for me as I recently lost my dear brother to a long term illness and his tragic death has made me re assess so many things about my own life, things that I have taken for granted. One of the main deep lessons for me has been how important my family and friends really are, so often we fall out over trivial things and can bear grudges, not speak or say cruel and hurtful words, or not say all the loving and encouraging words that we feel inside. I want to try and change the attitudes in my own life that will help build encouragement and good relationships, this is one of my goals

This life is so fleeting and whatever your faith or convictions may be, that is a fact. I remember one of my English teachers at high school gave me such an important gift, about appreciating life in all its fullness. I loved poetry and the classics and one poem (I think by Edward Thomas) had a line in it "Look thy last on all things beautiful every hour" I had to do an appreciation of the poem and I recall the comments of my teacher were so encouraging, she said something like - I see in you Lorraine the ability to understand the meaning of these words and live your life in this way, you have a tender heart. I must say both her encouragement and the sentiments of the poem to grasp hold of the preciousness of life made a deep and lasting impression on me. It is funny how the words we say can help turn someone else's life around.

The passing of my beloved brother last month has left a huge hole in my heart, love never dies and I believe that he is in heaven, and it has also made me more determined to try and appreciate those around me who I love and take a hold of life itself and all the wonder and beauty of it. I don't want to get to the end of my life and think what if, I want to think yes I have lived life to the full, I have probably gone on too much and am letting my emotions run away with me, so all that is left to say is love is the most important gift we have.

Follow your dreams in 2006

May it be a great year for you all

Best Wishes

Hello, my name is Lorraine Huber and thanks to the encouragement of a friend, I'd like to share a little of my story with you.

I believe that my abstract paintings today are a part of an expression of the real me, they come from within. They are part of an emotional and spiritual journey that started quite a while ago (I'll keep you guessing as to how long!).

What is Abstrtact Art? by Lorraine G Huber

What is Abstract Art?
Some Personal Thoughts on Abstract Art

by Lorraine G Huber

7th December 2005

As an artist today I take it very much for granted that I can express my emotions and inner life in what is termed an Abstract way. As artists painting in an abstract style we owe so much to the early innovators of Abstract art, the great names such as artists Wassily Kandinsky, Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko. These wonderful Artists broke the boundaries in art, sometimes shockingly, by experimenting with ideas, colour, form, movement, and showing that painting did not need to be representational, or realistic or impressionistic. A painting could simply be for its own sake, to express the vitality or subtlety of colour, line or form as in Kandisky’s lyrical abstractions, convey feelings moods as with abstract expressionist Mark Rothko or spirituality, power of movement and texture as we have come to recognise by the action paintings or drip paintings of Jackson Pollock.

We see many works of art today that we instantly recognise as being abstract or non representational. Some contemporary artists like to use geometric forms such as circles and triangles in their work, others like myself work from an internal perspective, trying to express what is inside the core of their being, their spirit or emotions. Abstract art can be a very powerful medium for touching the heart of the viewer, often we don’t always know why a piece of abstract art can move us, at least we can’t express it verbally. Sometimes it is the interplay of colours and form that arrests our senses and we can look at the same painting each day and always see something new and alive that excites me and drives me as a painter. As an Abstract artist myself, I love to look at earlier Abstract artists and always find something I hadn’t seen when looking at a work again. I particularly love Kandinsky’s work as they are so full of vitality, colour and lyricism, I know a lot of his early abstractions were influenced by music and his compositions are more complex than we first realise and intricately worked out along the lines of a symphony.

In contrast I remember as a young student visiting the Tate Gallery in London and standing in front of 2 huge works by Mark Rothko one canvas mainly black and the other mainly red, I was just learning then what it meant to be an artist and was very new to abstract art. I must admit that I was baffled by what I was seeing before my eyes, just colour on colour and very sombre and dark. At the time I did not like them, and felt almost angry, thinking that anyone could do that. As the years have passed I look at Rothko’s work with deeper insight and have lived a bit more; I find it intensely moving and powerfully evocative. I find it so sad that Rothko himself took his own life, as he felt that he had expressed himself emotionally and spiritually and was at a loss to know where to go with his creativity. I feel that if he had lived today that his creativity would have known no bounds, as it is due to some of these great artists that we as artists can freely express our ideas and emotions in such an abstract way.

Abstract art is not the easy path to take, sometimes it means grappling with deep thoughts and emotions and it can be quite draining painting an abstract work that has been an intensely personal journey. My own training in fine arts tended to lead me initially towards being representational or impressionistic, but as I experience the highs and the lows of living I find that I cannot go back to being purely representational, my eye has changed, I look at the world and all the complexities of life in an abstract way. I find it exciting exploring, experimenting with new ideas, new media, colour, form, and texture, things don’t always work and there are real frustrations but when it does you can look at your work and feel, yes, that is conveying something from inside me that is true! I see my work as Journey through Life.

I remember some words by Walt Whitman:

“I sound my barbaric Yawp from the rooftops of the world”! In my own work I am trying to do that daily, let out that essential voice within, I hope that some of these rambling thoughts make sense to you, please let me know if you share any of the same sentiments or even disagree strongly, I like a good heated debate, an exchange of ideas. Email me: abstractloft@blueyonder.co.uk

Thank you for reading these thoughts on Abstract art and I hope that you also enjoy looking at my work and even better for me, buying it,
