July 2010 - New and Old Drawings
It's been a little while again! This month I thought I would post some of my drawings as they are the main inspiration for shapes, colours and textures in my paintings. I generally draw in monochrome using inks, pastels, pens, charcoal etc but have started to experiment with some colour recently. Every few months I stop painting and go out and take photographs, make drawings and collect found objects, I normally do this when I feel like I've exhausted all my previous research material (and plus it's good fun and great to get back to nature!). So please have a look and keep your eyes open in the next few weeks for news on up and coming gallery shows and new paintings I am yet to photograph!
This is the same scenery as the drawing above but it has a different feel to it as I used different materials, oil pastels on watercolour paper. I am a great believer in doing something more than once as it makes you look with fresh eyes and I may capture something second time round that I missed first time.
