Newgale, Pembrokeshire
December 2016 (17th and 25th)
Looks clean doesn’t it
Here is the result of two Beach Cleans
And there was SO much more. My beloved Newgale, I had never seen so much stuff on it before, surely we MUST reduce our use of plastics .
To cope with the sadness, I look for gems of colour and design which I hope to make pieces of art with. The unknown human stories attached to each item fascinate me.
Do any of them get your creative mind working?
Lighting?
A mug tree?
A Damien Hirst inspired Spot picture?
A walk on Christmas day.
Thames Haul
and arrangements….

Rusty
‘Rusty’ the Ringstead steed.
Rusty Ringsteed.
Made from rust found on my first beach clean at Ringstead, 28July.2016.
Yellow and green triangles
playing with how to display triangles and trying out the ‘jelly fish’ against this background
using the sketch mode on the camera
washing over the yellow
playing with placement
Which do you like the best out of the last two – I can’t decide.
Playing with Canvases
Wondering how I would attach the rust pieces – the background needs softening a bit with more texture.
So excited about this little gem of rusty wire with old netting
but how to mount it
or this
and how do I treat the background, perhaps soft watery greys.
I think it hints at jellyfish.

Update: Frances of Island Threads says this picture reminds her of the Callanish Standing Stones, which gives me a shiver of excitement! I looked them up on Google images and now I’m itching to try a painting with them as inspiration. This photo by David Ross caught my eye
These pictures will only exist as photographs, which might in time be printed on canvas or paper.
The background painting is 16″x16″, acrylic paint and sand mixed with PVA on canvas
Which photograph do you think would look best printed on canvas?
