RainGirl -For Sale - £35
This is following on from the half a person images of recent previous works. There will be more in this series very shortly. It continues the use of black and white images.
After Miro - For Sale - £20
This piece was inspired by the abstract artist Joan Miro and some of the shapes that he employed in his work. It also goes to show that the different textures of the pictures use can sometime engulf the whole of the picture and this is best observed after several viewings.
Of Spirit For Sale - £20
This is the first piece that is directly inspired by Kurt Schwitters style of collage, although it does include my signature style all over it. All pieces selected for the final work was of course random, but how random is random?
Sad Songs - £20
This is the first of my pieces to include a random word poem about friendship and how to find it. Like myself I wear glasses and hats and I am musicial. The words were cut from a magazine and shaped into the tone poem.
Blood Widow - Birthday Present
The two sides of the same image has been used here, but gives the impression that it is two different people. The picture shows the blood reds of womanhood and the trial of their lives.
Helpmann - For Sale - £25
A black and White image of the Dancer and Actor Robert Helpmann (best known as playing 'The Child Catcher' in 'Chitty, Chitty, Bang, Bang) - 'I can do something with that face'- so Ninette de Valois famously said when she first saw Robert Helpmann. He had just arrived in London to join the Vic-Wells Ballet; he was 24, and in his native Australia he had already begun his career as an actor and dancer, including a tour with Pavlova's company as a student. With de Valois' support he became the company's leading male dancer, partnering Fonteyn as she grew to greatness in the classics, and choreographed a number of works in the 40s at least two of which earned a place in the repertoire. Most of all, he created unforgettable characters, both comic and dramatic, in many works by Ashton and de Valois. He had the priceless gift of being able to hold an audience, no matter what he was doing.
Treasure Map Skyline - SOLD
Another abstract this time using a pirate's treasure map as the background, all images were selected randomly. Three of the shapes werediscarded from a later piece.
Golden Nude For Sale - £50
Picked for the poseof the model and also for her skin colouring as it blends well with the background.
Half a Woman - For Sale - £25
Another chance to use coloured shapes with a black and white image. I love the way the hand is posed and the expression on the model's face. Sunlight rays capture the glow of beauty in colour.
Dancer with Horses - For Sale - £25
Another attempt at the style of 'Treasure Map Skyline', this time an attempt was made to make the picture look busy with the capture of the dancer and the movement of the horse riders, but also with the map that was choosen. Life is busy, go with it!
