Fear of white


I’m back in the studio after a week’s absence doing desk work.

I’m starting a new piece today based on a press image of Amy Winehouse. Last night as I looked at my work for the last few years a work came to me: “Descent“. I realised that summed up the spirit of my latest works, so I grouped them together into this so called ‘Project’. The one I’m starting today continues within that idea.

works 29 & 30


work 29. charcoal on Somerset paper.


work 30. charcoal on cartridge paper.

2 works i did in the last few days, though i have a feeling they need a bit of retouching. unfortunately i got sick and missed a few days work in the studio. can’t wait to be better to go back.

work 28. slow, silent, scream,


work 28. slow, silent, scream. Charcoal on Somerset paper. 76 x 56 cm.

I have a new studio space and this is the first work I made there, this morning. Finding it a strange experience to share a space with other people as I feel more comfortable on my own, but with the help of headphones and a strict window of time to work I managed well.
