After a few more experiments I'm finally putting paint, cardboard, jesmonite, nails and copper leaf to canvas. This is a work in progress but it's progressing as I intended, which is always good.

I've created this 12" square giclee print, H is for Hug, for valentines Day. Two Ellipses having a hug. Handy too for sending virtual hugs to friend during lockdown.
Well, nothing is new is it? But after creating an artwork a day during the 1st lockdown I haven't managed to produce much at all towards the end of last year. But I have been mulling over ideas for 2021. Inspired by a phrase in Michael Hampton's Unshelfmarked [Uniform Press] I've been inclined to combine my photography, painting and interest in graphic design in some way for some time and I have included text in my paintings from time to tine anyway. It does mean that the finished pieces will ultimately be digital prints but I'm hoping [cue that phrase] Taxanomically Awkward. The image above is just something I knocked up to illustrate the idea for this post but I may stick to the double spread idea. Anyway, Happy New Year, if such a thing is possible!
.The Brixton Blog & Bugle Art Show is now online and will be for the duration of December.
My two pieces are right in front of you when you go through the "doors". Be patient, the gallery takes a while to load. You can take a guided tour or make your own way round the 70 artworks on display. Clicking on a piece gives you details of the artist, medium, size, price and contact details Finally got some more work up on the Emerging Artist platform. Four more pieces are now available.
As expected, my solo show has had to be moved from next January and will now [hopefully] be some time in the Summer [2021]. |
