These two single figures drawn with twigs and ink have a dynamic relationship between them, even though I did not draw them with that intention. I thought that figure on the left needed something else on the paper but after I had done it, I changed my mind. But that’s the way it happens sometimes.
I went to the artist residency with four other Welsh women artists, Chris Bird-Jones, Sarah Hopkins , Rhiannon Rees and Rhian Haf. We have been supported by Wales Arts International. We are all members of AGOR Abertawe, set up to facilitate creative activity between women artists in Swansea / South Wales, and the Brandenburg area. We were mostly at the Atelierhof Werenzhaim, an artist community founded in 1996 by artists from East and West Germany in a 14th century former feudal tavern estate.
Oh my.
Folklore figures.
There now has to be a narrative based on these.
I’m wondering if I was influenced by being in a heavily forested area of Germany – with wolves!
