ARTIST STATEMENT
This show is a representation of my personal interest in my home town,
specifically old buildings and what I call ‘redundant scenes’, parts of the
town that have either been demolished or are scheduled for demolition or
‘regeneration’.
These drawings were produced by sketching from life and photographs taken
by me. Some of The pictures were made by combining multiple photographs to
create a ‘fish eye’ panoramic effect, as
I wanted to represent the building or scene as totally as I could.
All Drawings were produced first in pencil and then in Indian ink with a
crow quill dip pen and nib. It has been a good opportunity to develop my
comfort and skill at using ink over the last 2 years and to break from my
cartooning (though one does feature in this show, an update of William Hogarth’s
‘Beer Street’).
The work on display is a mix of originals and prints and limited edition
Giclee prints are available for all the work on display. I will accept orders for fine art prints and they
range from A4 - £15, A3 - £30 & A2
£45. The prints on display are previews of my most recent drawing and are
also for sale @ £5 each.
I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did drawing them and to see
