I have my fingers in lots of pies – arty pies of course. I’m working with the figurine in a variety of ways and enjoying shifting between mediums – photographs; ‘model’ ornaments, drawing and paint. It’s a versatile way of working but as I get more deeply involved with the processes I am loosing focus! So today I began to concentrate on one element – the photographed figurines. I am trying to improve on my photographic skills to create a more defined image. I think I will have to ask for some help from staff at college!
In these images I have run photographs through the photocopier pulling them back and forth on the glass as the scanner moves across underneath it. The distortions are random and quite unworldly – some good material to work with next.
