A stimulating few days spent at Porthmeor Studios in St Ives exploring ‘chance into abstraction’
Out of the comfort zone and free to take a chance approach to composition and use of colour (for me) was liberating to say the least.
Using ink on newsprint to start the process, quick mark making with as little thought as possible to the outcomes produced some interesting images.
Tear and scatter the paper, rip into squares and randomly re arrange – no cheating by shuffling the pieces into line or colour pairings.
Using these random outcomes to feed into the next stage.
Now on the studio wall waiting to inspire new works……………
