StoneH update

A further update on this image, I think its moving towards being finished now.

Elemental Issue

Antonia

A portrait, in oils.

Self Portraits

Simply two self portraits, these were done a few years ago now, but for the sake of showing a broader spectrum of work I am adding some of my archive work up to the blog.

Static

This was another piece produced using the gum arabic and ink technique with some gouache added as accent colouring. The mood and feeling behind this was one of solitude isolation and timelessness. With several representative elements relating to the characters feelings and sense of lonelyness. I would like to look again at this character and subject matter as I like the technique and composition of media, but I feel that with some larger negative space the atmosphere and character could be significantly stronger.

Blackwall

This was an image I did based around some text and observations of London streets and environments. This was produced using ink, gum arabic and gouache

Vibe Bar

Vibe bar is a bar and venue near to Brick lane in London. This was a speculative design for an event they were hosting.

Scentwave

I am uploading some of my other works that I have had around for a while now, over Xmas I will be checking through my stock of work to find any other appropriately finished pieces that I can add to display. This was an Illustration that was based around the concept of perfumes being potentially unisex. Based on a Guardian article.

Dark Skies

This image I made an initial start on last night, working with Gouache, ink and Acrylic. There is a large degree of mood and atmosphere in this. all the detail so far needs to be worked on further as I want a complex level and mixture of line and gradiation within the sky and its relationship to the stones, and the figures that surround the, I felt it was important to included figues with the stones, as these places were of such importance to the people who created them. The relationship of the people who worshipped around them is as important as the stones themselves.
