I heard a short while back that I have been selected for Salthouse 09, so I have been working more on my proposed work for the exhibition; shown here are some sketchbook drawings and small-scale experiments on paper : copper leaf, charcoal, chalk, graphite, red oxide, gesso.. and salt (the theme being Salt of the Earth). It will be a series of small sequential works on wood panel.. So much to plan, make and do, and I have to make a site visit very soon.. and it would be interesting to find out more about the other artists involved in the show.
the art of making soup
on sub-zero days…
a little bowl of my almost famous Rothko Red winter soup is just the thing.. with chillies, red peppers, beetroot, tomatoes, red onions and paprika..
on misty days
land in slumber, trees sleep, waiting for the wind to awaken the day..
camera, 2pm, two shots and then two batteries failed; something to do with the weather..
