The work of Dulcie Rhodes is an art of the expression of an idea or feeling, it is not that she has rejected all other forms, rather, the one that most meets her needs. The paintings always have content that arrive at a certain point; like the train or bus either departing or arriving at its station, sometimes it arrives at the terminal, at which time Dulcie will disappear to some place new.

There is always struggle and experiment and the work never aims for perfection. Subjects always spring from a subtle idea, an unresolved problem or a straightforward request.
