CITYSCAPE DRAWINGS

PLAYING WITH PENCIL AND PAPER - AN EXPLORATION OF PERSPECTIVE AND FANTASY CITYSCAPES.

DREAM PAINTING

I have a fascination with the simplicity and complexity of the aboriginal art form known as Dream Painting. The use of simple repetitive mark making to produce literary pictures is almost a lost skill and not even recognised as "art" until relatively lately. The process of creating such work is therapeutic and the control required to maintain colour and tempo in the mark making can be amazingly exhausting.
