I’m still interested in the idea of a recurring shape of series of shapes that can represent a feeling or state of mind moving through the space. I started on another large canvas this week. I wanted this to follow on from the last large piece that I’d completed. Something quite empty and cold.

Through working on this piece, I’ve found that I’m working with quite a rawness again, I like the way that the paint has bled and the masked off lines aren’t tight and neat. I like the rushed and care freeness of what I’m doing here. It kind of seems more confident. It’s knowing when to stop though and having the confidence to say ‘that’s it’. It isn’t at the stage yet by any means. I plan to get another two canvases of this size quite far on next week, and then maybe two double layered voile pieces along the same lines the following week, and that’ll probably be pretty much it for this project and I’ll see where I go from there.
