MIERCOLES, EL DOS DE SEPTIEMBRE, DOS MIL NUEVE
AFTER THINKING ABOUT MONDAY'S POST ABOUT THE DRAFT PAINTING OF 'THE HITCHER', I REMEMBERED A PAINTING I DID IN 1997 ON A SIMILAR SUBJECT. I DEVELOPED MOST OF THESE IDEAS DURING MY FRIST TRIP OVERSEAS MID 1997 TO THE UK. I HAD PLENTY OF SPARE TIME TO DRAW WHILE TAKING TRAINS AROUND THE COUNTRY. WHEN I GOT BACK TO ART SCHOOL, IT ALL POURED OUT.
IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE THE REOCCURRING THEMES AND MOTIFS THAT I STILL USE TODAY- THE FRAMES WITHIN THE FRAME OF THE EXTERIOR SHAPE OF THE CANVAS OR BOARD, MORTALITY MOTIFS AND WORDS OR TITLES INTEGRATED INTO THE COMPOSITION. SOME SIMILAR THEMES TOO- TRAVELLING, DISLOCATION, ESCAPISM. I'D LOVE TO KNOW WHERE THIS PAINTING IS. I SOLD THE MAJORITY OF THIS SERIES AT MY END OF YEAR SHOW EXCEPT FOR TWO THAT I KEPT- A SELF PORTRAIT WHILE SICK WITH THE FLU AND ANOTHER ONE THAT I STILL HAVEN'T WORKED OUT WHAT IT'S ABOUT.
SORRY ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE IMAGE, THIS IS PRE-DIGITAL AND FROM WHAT I CAN REMEMBER, I TOOK THE PHOTO OF THIS WORK USING TUNGSTEN SLIDE FILM IN DAYLIGHT. NOT A GOOD MOVE. I'M GLAD THOSE DAYS ARE OVER. I FIND EDITING WITH PHOTOSHOP SO MUCH EASIER.
