How can I use texture and mark making to create more drama ,movement and energy in the landscape ?.
An experimental week led by a series of challenges supported by your_art_tribe .
I love where the course is pushing me. On the right an earlier, more observational way of working concentrating on delineating each element ; on the left I allowed the materials to become much more active-scraping,layering,splattering ,obscuring and responding-having fun . It’s still early days experimenting but to me it holds more of the force and energy of the place
Thanks to Sam Boughton for her enthusiastic videos
‘Which speaks more strongly to you-the more recognisable landscape or the more abstract energetic version ?

Inspired by Louise Fletcher course “Find Your Way” -shared through the inspiring your_art_tribe I was encouraged to dive deep into ME.
The writing is still there beneath the paint -Fears.
Scars
Painful memories.
I didn’t erase them -instead I chose to build on them letting the inky words bleed through ripped,torn,tissue,rice paper layers-scraped and scratched like the lines of my well-lived face
I simply choose not to give them the final word.. instead this painting marks the beginning of the artist I’m still becoming

I’m collecting, I notice. I make.
For a long time I thought I was searching for my style. I’m beginning to realise I was searching for MY ENQUIRY. Louise Fletcher’s “Find My Way” project has encouraged me to stop asking “what should I paint?” and to start asking “what keeps calling me back?”
When I made this mind map, the same words kept appearing:-Witness. Traces. What Remains.Thresholds. Journey.
Without overthinking I began an intuitive collage. Maps,handwriting,fragments,old accounts;faces-they all found their way onto the page before I made any conscious decisions -laying the foundations of what comes next.-the beginning of a body of work exploring Spirit of Place
Thank you Louise Fletcher for giving me the practical tools,thoughtful questions and most importantly the confidence to trust my own direction.
-thank you for support and encouragement

Tiny pieces.Big hope. I believe art should connect us . Leave a little beauty. Share a little kindness. So that’s what we did throughout our eight weeks on the road in Scotland-leaving small pieces of art and poetry in places that moved us.I’ve returned with a heart full of Scotland , coast roads,mossy stones,ruined places,sacred landscapes,kind strangers and connection.i returned home yesterday carrying the spirit of place with me;looking forward to create new artwork from memory,fragments,weather,kindness and what we leave behind,

Edge of the world- an afternoon of utter joy reflecting in my way the landscape that brought me so much joy. No longer fearful of bold expressive mark making -thank you and .. a very simple set up (all my 70+ young body can carry up to St Ninians church on Isle of Whithorn) I was lost in the beauty;peace and love of land and sea.
