New drawings

Here are a pair of spoon drawings done recently. Using a different approach to mark making by building up successive light layers to give these a more fragile quality rather than just the knife marks I usually use. There is something about spoons that I love returning to, I think the round forms have some sort of sense of comfort, of wholeness possibly because the spoon relates the essence of eating more than other forms. As always I have numerous ideas for making – possibly a more collectable range alongside the sculptural works. I’m also considering reopening the webshop and putting my drawings up for sale, possibly with prints later as well as some objects. For now August Craft Month is in full swing and keeping me busy so I’ll be limited to drawings and photography for a while at least.
