'Shifting Scenes'

Shifting Scenes in My ”Forgotten Dreams of Crimson”

This play around doodle was done whilst scribbling in another of those ‘bored moments’ of “I don’t know what I want to do today?!” Rather than use black and white, as I have done in some of my other abstracts in this section. I wanted to see how I would feel about one in colour? To be honest, I still don’t know, I think I prefer the black and whites. Though I do like looking around the whole image and still finding things I don’t remember drawing. When I do one of these abstracts it is never planned and I restrict myself from holding the picture at arms length until I’ve finished. That way I think I get to explore it as much as others would on first seeing it. Whilst the picture is just made up of random shapes shaded, it is a voyage of discovery in finding little figure type people within the shapes. Simply, by the right hand bottom corner, having a little perspective, it made me think about the theatre and moving background scenes. Hence, the thoughts before the title!

'Sunrise At The Barn'

‘Sunrise At The Barn’

This watercolour was more of a doodle than based on any actual scene. I was playing around with colours which seem to arise on a cold misty dawn. In my imagination this is how the painting played out, connecting everything together by using the same colours throughout, from the sky, the trees across the barn and down to the ground. The pathway between the barbed wire fencing I added later to give the painting more perspective. Quite pleased with my imaginary doodle!

On The Farm – Cushion Cover

This cushion cover was made from a doodle I had done one day. I simplified the picture to make it simpler for patch-working, then used bright primary coloured cottons for the design and hand appliquéd all the small pieces to form the farm scene. As finishing touches I used some old buttons for tractor wheels and on the scarecrow’s jacket and embroidered some crows in the sky!

Dot by Dot! Out of My Head!!

Another day of ‘Doodling’ ended up with this ‘Dotty’ Ink Creation. The whole image was done one dot at a time. The portrayed illustration is actually from  my imagination- COMPLETELY MADE UP. Though I did take some still life inspiration from a chrysanthemum I had in a vase on the window ledge. I was very pleased with the Hands!

"Chaos in My  Head!"

Chaos in My Head?!, My ”Forgotten Dreams II”

Maybe an insight to where my mind goes sometimes. Somehow chaos and disorder seem easier to deal with in Black and White. I love doing these strange abstract pictures as each shape takes me to the next. There is no forward planning or initial sketch. I just go with the flow then enjoy finding ‘Things’ within my own picture, which I hadn’t seen that way when I was drawing it! Hopefully it will intrigue you too while you explore My Creation!!!
