Husb and I braved the atrocious weather yesterday and drove down to Narbeth, a delightful small town in Pembrokeshire where the excellent Oriel Q Gallery is hosting a new exhibition from Swansea artist Keith Bayliss, “Swsana And The Elders“. We attended an ‘in conversation’ between Keith and Sally Moss. Keith’s work is made up ofContinue reading “Drawing At An Exhibition”

Under Wraps
I’ve been involved in an artist collective, members of Swansea Print Workshop, at The SPace. We’ve had the place since mid-November and will be there for another three weeks. One of the best things about this has been the impetus for some of the artists to work together, to discuss and collaborate and we’re launchingContinue reading “Under Wraps”
That Goldilocks Moment
I’ve been experimenting today. I was given some large pieces of robust tissue paper by a fellow artist and invited to do something with them and then give them back to her for her installation. I decided to cover them with rubbings made from a very large woodcut I have been working on. It isn’tContinue reading “That Goldilocks Moment”
The Beautiful Machine
A while back, I had a small rubber stamp made up from a silkscreen print I did based on the fabulous Frida Kahlo, an artist I admire very much. I printed it onto small leftover pieces of a beautiful Japanese Shiohara paper that I had been using for another print job. I had been wonderingContinue reading “The Beautiful Machine”

It’s a cardboard box; on the outside I’ve collaged inkjet prints of digitally altered photographs taken during aContinue reading “Another Exhibition Piece”

It’s one of the biggest fine arts festivals in Britain. I’ve done a drawing installation based on my researchContinue reading “Long Hard Day”
Art’s Birthday
This is an old drawing I did couple of years back. It’s very different to my normal style and genre and it’s based on drawings and photos taken during a visit to Eisenman and Happold’s Holocaust Memorial in Berlin during heavy snow. I did the one drawing, size A3 onto mark resist film (Mylar) withContinue reading “Art’s Birthday”
The Artist Speaks And Wales Wins
Above: Scribbled heads and notes on installing artworks in a three dimensional space and how it alters them. Husb and I visited the Keith Bayliss exhibition at the Mission Gallery again today for a talk by the artist. It was a good opportunity to scribble plenty of faces as well as to listen to aContinue reading “The Artist Speaks And Wales Wins”
