I finally completed my shop an art finder I took me a while, but it is now done. https://www.artfinder.com/mark-edmonds
Finally I got round to listing some of my work on Saatchi yesterday. I managed to write a submission for the Bristol Biennial. After a long day at the studio, I must of worked a 18 hour day. I don’t think people realise how hard artists actually work. When I tell people I’m a professional artist, they seem to think I’m on a jolly – ha…I used to have a trade less hours and more money.

I spent the day remodeling the studio…again. Attempting to maximize usable space. At the weekend I went to the Airspace open studio event. It was pretty good particularly impressed with the work of Kornelia Herms and Kyle Cartilage not that everyone else’s work wasn’t good but my preference is painting.
Thank you to all those who have attended so far. There is some great work in there this year.
The themes of Mark’s paintings are often premeditated and decided prior to the application of paint. Imagery will be conjured at the base layer in the form of various shapes and textures. Paint is subsequently applied in an expressive manor, using meditative techniques, some documented by those who practice ‘automatic drawing’. A combination of paint and varnish is then used to reveal the hidden esoteric patterns within.
