From a series of small hand-made collages made using Clairefontaine Naturel, Gris and Canford coloured papers combined with ink drawn imaginary contour map topographic details (All A4 21×29.7cm in size). Some individual journeys, wandering across imaginary landscapes.
Experimenting with three ink on A2 paper works as part of ‘A Paper / A Day’, the daily creative drawing project for October on instagram. #apaperaday20 #kunstwerkt

Quatre études (2020): black acrylic marker on Khadi paper with some collage and overlay, A4 size.
A new series of collages have been coalescing layer by layer within the studio over recent days. Coloured by a palette of black, greys magenta and red, the images develop through a playful experimentation with geometric shapes. Natural forms, the warming of earth, birdsong in lock-down and the sense of safety from being inside, while outside a viral storm rages – this strange year of 2020 seems to present an inescapable narrative. #covid19artistsathome
Three experiments from yesterday’s zoom drawing club meet up: initially cutting-out freehand objects and the re-positioning of geometric forms. Fluid layouts encouraged subsequent reassessments, with explorations of shape and negative space floating upon a mid-grey paper (Clairefontaine Gris). Finally with a spray of adhesive the position of elements within the paper collages was fixed.
