winter project

from sketch to watercolour outline.

mixing drawing and painting and collage...

Continuing my experiments into the question of identity.

These wrapped figures are only temporarily attached to the canvas: their position in the group can change how the viewer reads their relationship.

Mixed media: brown paper, computer paper, stitch and gesso.

The second stage of the preparation of the canvas.

Manipulated in Paint shop Pro

work in progress

Hand made paper which has been stitched on to calico and then wet and rubbed back.

I made a few changes for stability and whatnot. I got a little ahead of myself with the last one, this one should be a much better baseline for my build style.

Now to make a head and get cracking on the armor and details.

A few of the pieces I'm working on at the moment. They are waiting for the resin to be inlayed, hoping to get them done over the next day or two.

work in progress

I was given a sheet of magazine scraps which had been applied to a background in a haphazard manner and was asked to use this as a source of inspiration!

I find this sort of challenge VERY difficult as I usually work to an idea, not an image.

After a mild panic I decided to gesso the whole page in an attempt to tone down the images and then I used it to create a folder which I then die cut and embossed.

I then grabbed the scrap bag and started to machine embroider images which started to leap from the page.

This is one sample.

Having fun with colour sampling

A sketch, under-painting and the final painting.

new room

I am leading a workshop called "The Book Artist as an explorer" and as a result I have discovered some treasures which have been hidden from view for a while.

I am now inspired to carry on with some work which has been left unfinished for some time

The World has so many challenges in 2020 and I suspect for much longer.
