Transitions continued…
Our human condition is such that we are forever in the situation of deciding how much attention to give to self-generated thought and how much to information from the external social or physical environment.

My pushing forward of ideas to create a sense of ambience, quietness and rest within my work has evolved with looking at past works on shoreline observations. There is a tranquillity of being part of nature it dosn’t demand of us it gives to us a sense of wholeness and peace within the business of modern life-and it is free!
I started exploring works with white paper today by using an old collograph rather than inking it up, I decided to investigate what properties I could acheive by embossing the collograph onto plain white paper,I started with cartridge paper and moved on to fabriano firstly soaking the paper in water in order to pick up the imprint of the collograph. the effect created was pleasing and I found the patterns curved lines and texture worked well, collagraphs are a medium I would like to further investigate for this project.
