Is it really 2 months since I started this blog post?! Searching for images among the multitude of files on my computer I came across the 'RA' folder and got side tracked for a while. It's useful however to see after a time period whether the things that initially attracted me about certain pieces of work still hold and whether there's new things to enjoy.
I had 2 visits to the Summer exhibition this year . Looking at the website in between made me realise I'd missed some pieces and I went back for a closer look. Besides subject matter ( seascapes , coastal features, boats ) it was often the details that drew me in: the juxtaposition of colours; slight variations in surface; combinations of media ; textures. Most of all the marks, particularly in woodcuts and drawings; text as marks; brushstrokes and scraffito.
Well known artists and names new to me - one the joys of the Summer Exhibition
