Finding a new theme


October's exhibition is a distant, pleasant memory. It has been quite a task to wean myself off lichens and onto another theme which will sustain my next body of work.

I have been very lax with the blog lately due to the festive season and continuing very hot weather which somehow saps enthusiasm for any but routine activities.

I started my new theme last November by going to the beach and taking lots and lots of photos of the amazing patterns of sand and rock on the shore platforms.  Here are a few........







Yet again any bystanders would have wondered at my sanity. With my nose down and eyes peering intently at my feet, moving the camera this way and that to get just the right composition then wandering on and repeating the process I was clearly somewhat unhinged.

I have started drawings inspired by the photos. The next step is to get onto some prints.
