Four watercolours and a new class..
A good day in the studio yesterday although getting hailed on and drenched walking there was uncomfortable. I had to dry myself with a towel covered in old paint and charcoal, lovely! And then try and dry items of clothing one by one on a tiny studio heater. But I managed four small watercolours before I thought I better dash again in between huge black clouds and showers. These belong to the Kaiaua theme I have been working on for a few months. The top one will probably make the cull – the others probably not, but we will see … Continue reading Four watercolours and a new class..
“Buried”, Peter Gibson-Smith at Bath Street Gallery, Parnell
This exhibition opened last night – fantastic. The large works are pencil and encaustic on paper construction, extremely detailed and thought-out. Very hard to show you with an image – I think you need to see them. Most of the works are made up of two or more panels with images pencilled onto paper, and covered with an encaustic wax method. The panels have a curved end to resemble paper unrolled. I may have some of the technicalities incorrect but the result is stunning. Go along and check it out. http://www.bathstreetgallery.com Continue reading “Buried”, Peter Gibson-Smith at Bath Street Gallery, Parnell
