Hanging Out Together - © 2016 – Robert N. Clinton (aka CyberShutterbug)
This is a photo I took on my last night in Dubai, during the trip I took for my birthday this past February. Gorgeous to say the least.
I can always rely on my trusty tilt shift to capture the mood of a place and time.

I don't like being sat in an office all week. Let me out! Let me free!
This gorilla is big. The most surprising thing about him is that he is made out of spoons. Spoons? Yes, you heard me right.
Quite why he is made out of spoons is beyond me, but I suppose that is art. He resides at the British Ironworks a strange museum type place with all sorts of metally iron things. It really is quite unusual in the best quirky British way. But it is free to visit, somewhere the whole family can enjoy being together and even your dog can go with you.
Y is for Yearning for sunshine!!
I'm so stir crazy right now. I want out of this house!! I want to go out and shoot! I have TONS of ideas in my head right now and I can't wait to get out there and see them through my camera.
I'm doing a bit better today. I was able to get up and do these shots, along with make dinner last night!! YAY!! Baby steps to feeling normal again. Thank you again for all the love and positive thoughts that you guys keep sending! They do help! I promise!!
Oh, and my new Macbook should be here today or tomorrow!! I can't wait!!! Yipeee!!

Looking Out
Martin Beek:
The paintings, drawings and digital works that form my contribution to this exhibition result from my residency at Camp Walden, Michigan during this summer. With the exception of the Simon’s Wood series of iPad drawings (no. 14), all the work was conceived, painted and drawn in the USA. It has come from a relatively small area of woodland no more than one hundred metres from my cabin studio.
In 2013 I exhibited my ‘plein air’ oils of rural locations in Ipsden and Longworth in a show called ‘The Pace of Nature’. These smaller paintings were a direct response to places that I had come to know well. Each work reflected the changing weather conditions that characterise the British climate; they were about the immediate moment. I did not retouch any of them in the studio.
In Looking Out my approach has slightly altered in that, whilst each work results from many hours’ direct work outside, certain passages and responses to the forest were repainted or reworked under studio conditions as a result of further consideration. This series was also painted as a body of work with several being developed simultaneously, rather than each being a record of a particular day.
Possibly the most difficult thing to do as a painter is not to mimic someone else’s paintings or style. I therefore find that my unique choice of location, which has no immediate association with other artists, is a really helpful move as it gives me a clearer sense of vision. Walden fulfils that for me, as it has done for many years.
This is the first time that I have exhibited in the UK a complete series of American works painted in situ. With the opportunity to spend seven or more hours painting each day, without having to travel any distance, I seem to find I can paint more fluently and the sense of involvement is all the deeper. America during the summer months, with its extreme heat and strong light and shadows, injects a kind of excitement into my work that I don’t often achieve in Britain. I find drawing trees both challenging and rewarding, not at all predictable if one is serious about the task. Here in the heart of the forest new opportunities present themselves. I suppose one of the ‘rules’ of modern painting, if such exist, is to think about the surface and not go for illusionistic tropes. So, as with all my work since 2012, I’ve made it quite specific in its intentions, without labouring or overworking. This results in an effort to create a lively surface.
The paintings are considerably larger than the 150 works of ‘The Pace of Nature’ series. The larger scale involves different approaches, and a lot more physical movement in order to judge the effect of distance and overall optical colour mixtures and relationships.
The acrylic paintings (‘Woodnotes’ I–III) were influenced by my iPad drawings, utilising the possibilities of multiple layers of line and overlapping colour. These works pull away from their motif and are a more personal statement about the forest and capture a fleeting sensation. They are characterised by loose areas of random marks against areas of control, held in the geometry created by the pine trees.
Formally, the works stress verticality and height, looking out and upwards, strong contrasts and spatial division. It was also rewarding to make a number of large charcoal drawings (nos. 11–13) to convey strong areas of light and shade.
Each morning began with an iPad drawing, some of which form Walden Suite (no. 2), a response to the daily variations of light and colour. The iPad drawings echo the Simon’s Wood piece (no. 14) which I began in January 2016 and finished just before my June departure for USA.
Not having enough time to make it back to Grand Rapids, D707's crew tied their train down at the east end of Fox siding. Power on this day was an NS SD70ACU, a UP SD70M, and a TORC SD40.

Sunday afternoon Jim and I took a quick trip along the old highway to check out the ice forming in the current cold snap. Water levels were high and while no ice was forming directly below the falls itself everywhere the wind blew the fine stinging spray was getting a thick layer of ice. And so the prettiest display of ice at Horsetail was to the left of the falls and in front of the falls below the wall (show above) at Horsetail Falls. IceBox. N41257
