Mixed media on canvas.
 
H 50 x W83 x D2.5cm
 
This work came about  in 2021 as an ongoing studio piece painted on a random canvas whilst thinking about ideas for other larger works. Constantly adding aspects when I needed to follow an idea through and explore it more so the work grew from itself with no thought about composition or end, in fact I'm not sure it has ended!
 
Exploring geometry, patterning, surfaces, repetition. It's somewhere between a painting and a drawing where I have used many different types of pens and washes. The metallic elements catch light and shimmer from certain angles so the background painting can look smoky and misty in direct light, dark and dense in low light.
 
This work can be hung vertical or horizontal.
