20/09/26
Full day in the studio. Steps in the right direction but what is it …. that’s proving difficult? Flatness of the image? Lack of shadows that help define structure and form? Proportions… angle? It honestly couold be a combination of some of all of the above. Will get there though,
…a joy to work on and is actually fun exploring the canvas and how the image can be pushed / developed further. Complete opposite.
The trick will be having all look effortless despite a cavernous gap in experiences thus far. Does the black/charcoal background come away? Making way for a colour that ties both subjects - say a cooler, muted olive green?

‘Navigating the Kaleidoscope’ exhibitiion by Dan Shipsides in Ulster Presents. Nice variety of works - video, sculpture, early painting and beautifully tactile charcoal drawings (with a wee bit of taxidermy thrown in for good measure).
