9 New Pieces

There has been a time when art took second place. It hid in the corners of the room, there was no way that the pile of old magazines and books that had been used for previous pieces were to be used again. The call of the act of art was a dying monster that had come to a point where it was silent and unloved. I took time out to see what would happen if there was no outpouring of the talent. I knew that I wanted to see if the eagerness would return to be rekindled to be alive with the same emotion that had been there in the beginning of the need to be an artist, or at least be artistic, it faded like a candle burning out to a thin line of smoke that faded away!

I was lost, 12 months, long depressing months of no work, no art, no need to be creative, except through the art of photography. Then early this year, the need to be, to create to relate to my surroundings, and here I am the maker of works, the person who has come back to be an artist!

Here are 9 pieces from February laid bare.

1. Cause is unknown - £25

Magazine collage about modern life, the rich stars that fade and burn like a bonfire.






















2. Mobility - £35

The distressed pieces are here to be observed, life is all about Mobility once that is gone you are left alone and depressed.





















3. The Ideal City - £30

Not just the Ideal City but the Ideal life, where everything is simple and nothing is a worry but the closing of a chapter.






















4. You Make The Most - £40

That is the slogan on a wall. That is the rally cry, that is the thought in your mind just before you sleep, are you a social chameleon? Do you need to make the most.....?





















5. Shipments - £30

Await the shipments of news, good or bad, happy or sad? There is too much clutter to this world when all is dark within the bright day.























6. Blat - £40

Drink Blat, Friday/Saturday night part-time owl, the weekender is the wonder, the ninth wonder of the twenty-first century and its a fix, not an answer.





















7. Naked - £20

We all need a naked life, one where we are left laughing at our body shape and made to accept who we are and who we should be instead of arguments of cover girls/boys and sadness.






















8. Do Not Open Here - £45

The rubbish of society, the lack of money, the bills, the headaches, the rust of numbness, the mail of departure, here we capture it all blank. threatening, dark afternoons of sleep.

9. Clones, Below

Fashion dictators, the clones of life, the lost of freedom of original thought, the failed artist of misery, the torn and distressed image of lifelessness that dances on a frail night to confuse the masses.
