Day 14 January 30 x 30 2017

More circles in the sky, charcoal and chalks on brown paper. Somehow my scanner doesn't quite pick up the correct tone of the brown paper. Knowing that everyone sees this differently on their monitors or tablets etc I am leaving it alone. Looks a little too dark!

Each evening I sit in bed, my new studio, ha ha, and try to let myself go and see what new marks I will be making. Certain materials I react differently than with others. I usually have several going at the same time, sometimes changing, adding or discarding.

Day 13 January 30 x 30 2017

This is another in the amorphous series. Charcoal, white and gray chalks on brown paper. Thinking of doing more work on this. Just saw a small clip by the artist Nicholas Wilton about control and spontaneity. This seems a bit out of the control. Thinking in what if.....?
