A New Beginning

Moving on – the Big Final Project…. Scary… Working on my ILP, well, I sent it out to the tutors, but it may need to get “tweaked” a bit (or a lot).

I’ll update it here once finalized. Hope it all works out well.....

Alchemy

I haven’t uploaded any info about my progress for some time – so better get on with it ;O)

I’ve got my results so far and I’m pleased enough ;o) Now just need to start the final project.

Just for a few lines reflecting back on the 2^nd not completed project – as I am still planning to finish it. I love the idea and got loads of materials organized.

I’m going to the North of Scotland during the February break. My in-laws are being extremely supportive, although they are not big fans of art that doesn’t look like something from Michelangelo… even Picasso is a bit extreme to them…so very appreciated they are so understanding… ;)

The plan is to heat to a very high temperature two 50x50cm steel plates and melt various metals such as tin, copper, aluminum, brass, silver and also some chemical substances which I’m still getting hold of. This should create a very expressive, alchemy influenced pieces. I’m just really hoping it’ll work out, as I’ve never done anything like this before. The plates will be the final works, but I’m also planning to take photographs of these and make silk screen prints.

So this is the plan – I will update the blog once I get a chance to do it in February.
