More and more I have been realising that creating my art work is not about what mark I get it is about living and breathing art, exploring the possibilities that float around in my mind… some of them work and some of them don’t but what is important is that I am visualising my inner thoughts and ideas, representing my thoughts on life and experiencing a process.
I have been exploring ideas that are both new and have been living in my head for a while, waiting for an opportunity to break free of the confines of my brain and emerge and grow through the process of creating.
The photographs attached to this post are a record of an experience I had with paint, or perhaps even the work itself… I was transcending thought and to a certain degree the act of my own hand. I was exploring the possibilities of creating work that is beyond me and subject to other forces.
The experience was fantastic and I found once again a meditative process, watching the cup spin around and around as the paint dripped and splashed over the paper was at once mesmerising.
The physical records on paper of this process are in their own right very interesting and create a detail with the paint that would be incredibly difficult to acheive in any conventional manner of painting.
