Through 2020 and the Covid-19 lockdown I continued to develop the Ridgeway Relics work – inspired by archaeological finds from Swindon Museum and Art Gallery’s Collection. I have tried to “place” these pieces back into the landscape where they were found. There is more from this series under the Intaglio, Relief and Monotype Prints tab on this site.
The Cornstubble Series came about from walking though dead Winter corn fields near my home. The bleak stumps of dead corn sticking out of mud and pools of water reminded me of some of Paul Nash’s war paintings.
All these pieces are a mix of image transfer, etching, photography, collage and acrylic
