I have been having a research day as I have a powerpoint for tomorrow on the direction and influences on my practice. Of all the text artists I have been looking at so far it is Sean Landers that grabs my attention. It strikes me that these could be very painterly, large scale, and quick to generate using a free hand and the source materials that I have already been looking at in terms of ‘low’ end women magazines.
It would do no harm to test these more on paper to see how this layering of information would work.
Also, if you are to use one magazine as your source material, then why stop there? Use a different newspaper, lads mag, whatever. But something that is a pinpoint of social history?
I want to have a play at this one as it does tick some boxes and at this point all options need to be considered.
