this blog aims to be a view into my practice as an artist. a window into work in progress. it also serves as a basic reflective tool for myself and a way of exposing my thinking through making to anyone else.

Through draft spray shop
My eco spray shop. The through draft is great. Only used with water based acrylic goo and high pressure low volume gun puts it on a treat. Fortunately as yet not had the need for super high gloss finish i just do mat.

What am i doing
In the back of my under construction dark room i am fitting a 4.7 x 0.82m wet bench for black and white film, silver print processing. Making images. Thinking of my school art teacher mr prior, who gave me a set of dark room keys so i could walk out of english lessons (as a struggling dyslexic) and retreat to the dark room for my art, it was a sanctuary for me i appreciate now more than i ever have, thank you coadoux high school.

First roll of film in 19 years
It was 19 years ago i last processed a roll of black and white film. Today it was a great pleasure and relief to finally process my first roll of film in my still under construction darkroom area. Now i just need walls and a wet bench to do some enlarging and wet printing. Absolutely loving it.

Just took some snaps in the garden to work up a life size sculpture in wood waste. It was so funny my wife jenny could not stop hooting with laughter between snaps.

Progress
Progress has been slow on my lost at sea project lately with all the building work on our house. With tired limbs feeling much like the visualisation of myself in the picture i managed to draft the beginning out of another drawing. Really enjoyed it.
