Looking into, looking out of, looking through

Continuing my fascination with looking into sometimes mysterious openings, looking out of and looking through (see also Doorways and Openings).

In 2019, I also made a decision (stuck to so far!) to focus very much on using materials of low environmental cost instead of lots of new canvas and paint. I started using 2nd hand picture frames as part of the art work itself. And left over fabrics which sometimes have small amounts, eg watered down, artists’ quality acrylics added to the colour or texture of the fabric.

I started the above ‘Interiors’ before we knew anything about Covid 19 – but lockdown made those scenes of people through windows so much more relevant!

The others here were made before, during and after lockdown. See my page ‘Lockdown is where the home is’ for my major work during that time, which is very related to the works on this page.
