New Artwork ~ Emerging From Darkness

Here’s my latest artwork, ‘Emerging From Darkness’. For the first time I worked on a black primed board, which I thought might be super challenging for me as I predominantly work with light and colour. This is how it began …

I’d bought some lovely Japanese papers at a BrisStyle market over the weekend so was keen to chop them up and incorporate them into the artwork too.

So after a few hours work and a bit of nervousness that soon turned into the joy of creating, here’s what it became …

 

But I’m pretty happy with how it turned out and it was really enjoyable and not so scary after all to work this way. In fact, I might even try it again. It was interesting working from my ‘dark side’. Mwoah hoa hoa hoa hoa.

I had a little play with the image on my ‘puter this morning and I quite like it as a fabric design too.

Hope you have a great weekend x
