We have just completed our module of work titled ‘Fine Art Confirmation of Practice’ and here is my evaluation of the work I’ve produced:
DESCRIPTION OF WORK PRODUCED
Moulded cups – newspaper, receipts, art & Mobius strip form
Painting from 2nd Dec, aiming for everyday – resulting in rapid development of work and understanding of how I can be most creative.
IDEAS BEHIND WORK
Listening – evolving to listening by painting in an unplanned way, yet restricting my choices to eliminate procrastination.
E.g. by limiting my palette at the moment, I have a simple choice of starting with grey or green, rather than every possible colour in paint.
WHO INFLUENCES ME
Cy Twombly (www.cytwombly.info/) – I admire the qualities of his work – subtlety, vigour, spontaneous yet with a depth of knowledge behind.
Edmund de Waal (http://www.edmunddewaal.com/ ) – I was initially drawn to his work as it looks poetic – pots on shelves reminding me of writing and then being drawn further into his work at V&A (http://www.vam.ac.uk/) and his Japanese influences.
Lisa Milroy (http://www.lisamilroy.net) – her arrangement of everyday objects in her paintings.
