Art from the Tool Shed

                                               Colour, Shimmer & Texture Studies

​

These paintings are an experience to view, due to the mixed, raised textured surfaces, they were produced as an adventure into Urbanism, a humanitarian issue, for the preservation of the earth, with issues around waste and recycling

 A form of recycling & upcycling surplus materials and an experiment with household paints, texturing and  light  on the surface of a painting, to discover how different paints and materials relate to one another.

They are spontaneous free flowing and loose sculptural ways of creating art, with few rules or hard lines, the only requirement being is that they contain some form of rubbish. They are an excuse to get mucky, abandon fine brush strokes, experiment with surfaces, light reflections and the resonance of materials whilst using discarded items, varieties of building materials, the commercial  & artist paint range or anything else I could find to create marks.
