I have started another painting progressing the ideas from the earlier REVIEW painting. This time my improvements/experiments are:
Get away from the literal idea of the magazine cover but just use the language of magazines/marketing.
Use the strap lines instead – found statements – soundbite society
Use an image of a model, as the female gauze staring out at the female viewer
Union jack background to symbolize Cool Britannia and modern day culture.
This time the scale is about 3 times the size of the earlier REVIEW painting.
Improve my use of stencil and text as the last one was a little crude and could do with refinement.
