STILL LIFE
|
Still life and the placement of treasured objects in the home has always been of interest to me.
In this series I have painted objects and flowers that surround me in my studio, my home, and from childhood memories. Painting these objects gives them an everlasting life and deepens my appreciation of these simples treasures. These new works consist of small still life pieces created on up-cycled cork placemats. The cork substrate and still life genre are woven together with pieces of original cork forming part of the composition. Snippets of text harvested from old books add a quirky note to these vignettes. |
PAPER STONE MUD EXHIBITION 2019
|
Paper structures and Artists’ books
The Paper Stone Mud body of work including eco printing on paper, paper structures and artists’ books has developed into a personal journey, uncovering a new artistic language. Artists’ books, book works or paper structures are a form of practice created as a way to display art works. Eco printing on paper using local plant sourced materials has been part of the foundation for this body of work. A simple combination of leaves, paper, heat, water, experimentation and trust.
