Stuff I've been up to lately

My work space at college. I <3 my corner, but I've recently migrated to the corridor/graphics room for more space.

Experimental silhouettes.

Atomic shadow 1 so far.

Atomic shadow 2 so far (detail).

3 - started this one today, just improvising. Not sure it'll survive, definitely needs more work.

Atomic shadow 3 (detail).

 These all need a fair bit more work, but I'm feeling pretty good about how it's going so far.

I've suddenly realised...

...that I love watercolours. I've never been able to get my head around acrylics or oils so I hardly ever paint, but damn, I love how watercolours look.

These are my eyes, by the way. It's an experiment as part of a project, I'm not just really vain.

And then I was reminded how much I also love Marlene Dumas. Her work is so ghostly and simple.
