works in progress…
I’ve taken several images from YouTube videos, all with significance to the conflicts in Syria and Iraq.
I’m considering the idea of mixing images of the relevant world leaders in with the ordinary people, who’s lives are being affected being by their decisions. I’m still interested in the reactions and behaviour of ordinary people, towards each other.
I like the idea of the drawing/paintings that I’m making for the degree show to have coherent visual style. I’ve made several large canvases (40″x60″) two of which I’ve started to work on.
Both images are charcoal, straight onto the white primed canvas.
