Inspirations

Out and about in the landscape.
As well as hanging around Canwood invigilating etc and creating an 'ideas' painting, I travelled about the countryside for inspiration. And wow this red is def going to appear somewhere! The poppy fields near Bewdley. Fantastic!

Works In Progress


The 'Fragile' work is coming along. Its what I like to call an ideas piece. It may not become anything but remain an inspiration for further ideas or it may become a finished piece in its own right.
The wallpaper base has stood up so far to some abuse as I have used a lot of paint and water on it. Some of the paint is quite lumpy and thick. Seeking some texture that is not wallpaper with this.
Certainly a mixed media piece of work.
Adding aspects of Canwood that I can as a collage is fun and something I don't usually do. Frees you up and lets you just do, as it were. Mud might work as well as foliage etc. We shall see!
