POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE...

I've been busy lately with these individual pieces of art. All are pen and ink on watercolour postcards, no pre-planning, just a kind of 'Rorschach test' for whatever mood I am in at that moment.

Great fun, and very satisfying ( as well as addictive ) to create a piece of art in one or two days. Here's a selection...










...I'll publish the full selection soon, in a future edition of MONOBLOG.

WONDERWALL

Around Birmingham, there is a severe lack of white walls to actually hang art. However, there is no shortage of white walls to paint...if you don't mind getting arrested. Here's a visualisation of what my studio building would look like, if I had a very long ladder - and a good lawyer.

POSTCARDS...preview

Last year I did some postcard art for a friend to auction and raise money for her art college. It was great fun, so I've now bought a stack of blanks and am doing one a day, covering everything from cubism to futurism to vorticism and surrealism to photorealism. None of it is pre-meditated. I may draw a grid to get me started but that's about it. I have no idea what I'm aiming for. I'll post the selection soon...small art is very liberating..!

ONE A DAY..?

Yeah, maybe I should attempt to break some kind of record, and post a new piece of art every day for the rest of the year..? Here's today's. I can't seem to get Hokusai's 'The Great Wave' out of my system, can I?

I've finally gotten round to experimenting with all those Michelangelo drawings I did last year...loads more to come.
