‘NEW BRUTALITY’ (2024, mixed media on paper)
This is ‘NEW BRUTALITY’ Sorry for being trapped in the 20th century dealing with the 21st. And sorry for being unable to make any sense whatsoever – locked as we are inside the maddening house, where a ‘just do it’ Californian approach to life has left us all burnt out people on a burning planet. DeepContinue reading “‘NEW BRUTALITY’ (2024, mixed media on paper)”

Having had to initially cancel, when things got a little too much, I got a new opportunity for the exhibition to go ahead in the May 2022.

Limited edition map books
Finally got around to getting these done! I’ve been trying to work out a way of making my work own able for years. I’ve always found selling originals problematic; not only does it sometimes seem counterproductive to sell something I have spent 3 months developing, and then have nothing to exhibit, it also doesn’t makeContinue reading “Limited edition map books”
Drawing feels relevant again
After using drawing as the main mode of expression for my art for well over 10 years, a couple of years ago I just stopped.
