Some of you have asked about the pieces I mentioned on this week’s Art Juice (episode 92) where we were talking about Inspiration or Imitation.

So these are the work on paper I’m slowly starting with. Only once I had done them did I think they reminded me rather of Ben Nicholson... (in my dreams!)

It’s unavoidable really... so the question is “Who would you admit to being influenced by?” Tagging is allowed if it’s someone on Instagram 🙂

Afternoon simply exploring marks on paper. This is 220gsm and it’s not really thick enough on its own, but next I’m thinking about creating just large sheets of colour to do some constructions like my mini sketchbook... further exploring ideas of edges, boundaries, freedom or containment... non square formats. Doesn’t it take a while sometimes for ideas to emerge from sketchbooks?

Also missing exhibitions so sharing a reminder from the Antony Gormley show last year at the RA and Barbara Rae.

Recorded just for you because this is the best bit

Recorded just for you because this is the best bit 😆 Well, making it was kind of fun, the end result not so much BUT there was a tiny part which lead me into remembering something I always enjoyed....
... and following that thread prompted me to start some other smaller work on paper. I’ll share when I’ve done a few more because this feels good and manageable - and, actually exciting. And right now I’ll take that!

If you’re feeling a bit wiped out, you are NOT alone. We had our weekly group call for the Connected Artist Club this morning and it turned into a slightly ranty support group for artists feeling a bit wiped out. Possible suggestions for feeling good ranged from new pyjamas, baking, cosy socks, big lung boosting shouts, embarrassing public displays of dancing, mixing colours, drinking, not drinking... but most of all giving yourself the OK to take the pressure off, and also we had a giggle about career suggestions of being a boxer.

Making art is a special and wonderful thing and needs special nurture ... See more in stories and link in bio if you’d like to join us next time we open.

This group is the most special thing I’ve ever created (apart from my children LOL) and in January we will be open again - for wonderful people only!

Please do share if you know someone who might be interested in finding out more.

It felt soooo good to be back in the studio this week - 2 full days without expectation.... I started some small canvases using collage to tighten the surface, I worked on a set of 12” panels thinking mainly about ways to create torn texture. I’ve always loved torn billboard posters and want to get more graphic elements back into my work...

Today I felt bold enough to keep pushing some of the larger ones. This colour palette of baby blue, yellow and pink is somewhat surprising, currently a bit sickly BUT there are also some wonderfully nuanced neutrals coming through where layers combine.

As I look back through recent sketchbooks I see a theme of simplicity with extremes of scale and focus on small areas. It’s perhaps hard to see here but it feels both an intellectual and physical challenge at this stage. That was my week - time for a Thai takeaway 🙂

Ooo! That felt good - despite the sodding news 😁 I have new trestle tables all ready for a potential workshop 🙄🤪 so I set up a new working area (swipe for the mess).

Also I have 7 large new canvases so I was testing smaller ones first using soft gel to bond paper to create a smoother surface. You can see in the video - use water to stretch the paper a bit first means no wrinkles. On the canvas at least 😂

Jeez, I need to get out of the house more!! Gorgeous sunny day here in London so the garden is calling for the last hour of sunshine.

The final day on Sunday and I’m heading back to be at the @cowshedcollective tomorrow to enjoy the sun and all the work on display. Might be the last day out for a while!
