Continuing to Develop my third Body of work

Ink, acrylic and biro on Canvas all 55 X 55 Cm

Like I said I would last week I have continued to experiment with ink and paint on more absorbency materials to create situations that provoke me to try and control them. I have made small series' of paintings that where ally created at the same time using the same amount of ink and water. Even thought the outcomes of the ink are out of my control by me monitoring the amount of ink that is used it my way of controlling it.

Ink and Biro on Canvas 76 X 61 Cm

the circles that I have then layered on top are my response to the unpredictable fall and like in my other work I have added enough circles until I feel that I have controlled the situation enough to make it almost stable is the word I use, I don't feel comfortable looking at it until I have finished the circles. I think that next week I need to start working on a larger scale and paint on the canvas before I add the ink to see if the ink will fall onto the paint.

I have been looking at the futurism and Dadaism movements and also the artist Gillian Ayres looking at how I can develop my work. I have been wanting to introduce more paint into my work and I think that by looking at the movement and the artist I have some idea on how I can move my project forward.
