Just realised that I have not shared this key piece on this blog yet! Completed in April this year, I was unable to share it due to it being an entry for a competition. Sadly I did not make it to the finalists….

One of the key things about this work is that it is entirely painted using earth derived pigments and mediums. I love working in this way.

Feels so connecting.

The original doodle was from my 1994 diary. if diaries, or doodles interest you, please visit my other blog, KATALYZOR, where I share my strange physical and mental adventures in word and pictures, pretty much unedited!

Many of the doodles of that time were a kind of self portraiture, so I decided to re-work the ideas again.
