SMALL PAINTINGS
I decided after the Aberdeen Art Fair that I would, again, work small. I had been working on a larger size for impact at the Art Fair, but now I feel that is not really my true metier.
How small, I`m still not sure, but I guess abut A5? I will play around.
There is something about this format, which is to do with the idea of crapping the impossibly big- a landscape- into the portable- a postcard size - which I find immensely appealing.
Moreover, it`s a format that seems to belong to me, as I`ve worked so often within it.
Thus, I proceed- priming boards and getting carriers sorted, and in a week or two should have some work to show, and perhaps am prepared for Spain and Morocco, the Winter escape.
I feel strongly drawn to revisit the works of artists who set me off on my path as an artist: Odilon Redon, Hammershoi Fatin-Latour: late nineteenth century masters of the strange.
