It has been a few months since my last blog and to be honest I haven’t been in my studio a great deal due to other work and illness. Nevertheless when I am I continue to play with recycled packaging, watercolour paint and occasionally collage. This includes physcially cobbling together pieces of cardboard (a bit lke a patchwork). I enjoy the way that this adds a different texture and feel to the piece.
Before Christmas I paid a visit to The Photographers Gallery in London to see the photo collage exhibition by Deborah Turbeville. This certainly has inspired me (and reminded me) of how much fun one can have with one’s own photography and so I am on a mission going forward to reintroduce this back into my work alongside what I am currently doing. In the meantime the art pieces on display here are of watercolour on recycled cardboard where I have used as a basis digital montages from various sources of urban interiors and exteriors. I have also included some other very simple pieces of still-life.
