Art From London Markets, a-n feature

 

Starting new stories.

New work, stage one the base layer, started today, yellow ochre, chromium oxide and C Robeson matt glaze medium in various concentrations. 1x1m

The smoggy rays of morning got me experimenting on some small 10x10cm boards
when this is dry I think they need a glossy layer on top.

Ashurst Art Prize PD session last week was once again focussed on developing your relationships with a particular emphasis this time on peer networking. The actual sessions themselves do allow this, as there were a few more familiar faces in the room, and also confirm doing fairs as a great opportunity, not only for meeting potential buyers or representatives, but for meeting other artists when their work is there in from of you. I visited the London Art Fair thanks to the Charlie Smith Gallery ( a benefit of networking is free tickets), and in going to fairs at this level you see the continuum from where you are now building to another stage.

And the lost girl, well I will be seeing her in her new residence this week, and hopefully she will not be feeling too lost. She has moved into a residential care home and we are hoping that this will be better for her.

So now its on with getting some lovely limited edition giclee prints made to add to my stall for the Talented Art Fair. As the indigo works are not so well served by photographs I am thinking the more recent works in very small editions, and this gives me a chance to expand the range of what I am showing there.

 

Oh and last weeks unfinished work was completed like this..though still drying
