Inspired!

4th February, An inspirational day in all.

Attended good in-house training on web presence at The Art House, Wakefield.

following on from this I attended an Exhibition and Artist Talk at Beam, The Orangery, Wakefield.

The Artist was Photographer John Davies.

I took from his photos and narration a genuine voice of a generation. Who sees great beauty in the Northern Urban Landscape. I felt a kindred connection being a Northern lass, coming from the Great Urban sprawl which is Greater Manchester.

In most part and is still passionate about he uses real film.... I was so inspired to once more to tread the pathways of township to promote the beauty and pride of the once Great National Industries and Craftsmanship of the Working Man's Palaces!

......only if I could buy the batteries for my manual Pentax camera, I have film crying out to be used.....

John Davies landscape photography focuses on the states of 'in between'.

 ...good to be back after mysteriously being locked out of my own blog... I have been reflecting upon themes and techniques which have been at my core prior to and at the outset of art college adventures, which reduce down to organic form, traditional  techniques and exploring processes. New work embraces re-examining northern textile industrial heritage set within the Pennine regions of Yorkshire and Lancashire .  Within this, is how the changing face of industry has impaired our familiar visual reference. MY response is to pay homage to L.S. Lowry's imagined Lancashire urban landscapes- which are inherent  with my own Lancashire heritage , and create my own re-imagined urban and rural landscape.  Fine art print and textile techniques such as hand felted fleece, new and vintage cloths are layered with textile techniques and process using stitch to draw together a commonality within textile narratives.
