more colour explorations

'Paris' this image was produced in response to a visit to Paris as an Art Student in 1990.
This is on display with other archival artworks and inspirational "stuff" from my studio!

7th October 2009 Colour exploration. My starting point was "The Beautiful Batley Map". It's Geometric forms.





As I started I was surprised I chose a heavy black line, I thought to myself "I don't do geometric"!





All the while thinking of a friend Carol Holloran, who is moving a way from geometrics and going organic, she claims with influence from myself?

Today's colour exploration on packaging paper. I did enjoy having the strong line to work with, then a little abandonment!

As I was photographing the image, I noticed the portrait behind, and noticed a similarity. colour line, technique.

The above thoughts occurred whilst re-arranging and removing working drawings and paintings. Purposefully changing dynamics. Changing my pattern of production.

Or so I thought..... when I look round this (large) gallery approx 50' x 30', I have a mini revelation ! And I realise my patterns are distinctive. The above images I think depict this?
