About The Artwork
This piece is one of a new and ongoing series of works using Conté Carrés (square) hard crayons on intentionally folded and creased art paper. There is almost a necessity to view these folded works with side-lighting, so the subtle three-dimensional nature of the folded paper reveals itself with tonal changes between the random angular planes in either light or shadow depending on the direction of the light source. My primary influence with this series is from the old fortification designs of Vauban (1633-1707), the French general and engineer who planned the defenses of many strategic towns in France and Germany. Here, the obvious design of the defensive walls have been breeched and sectioned to create a confusing maze... a chaotic nightmare for both attacking and defending forces if this situation was reality!

France
Abstract artist... stock photographer... writer... plant-based... fixie-cyclist... minimalist... and easy going, I studied Interior Design at art college in the 1960s, then worked in the TV and film industry for more than a decade, before turning to photography full-time. Later I published and edited specialist photographic magazines on darkroom techniques for several years and continue to supply digital images to the world's largest photo agency from my current location here in France. However, in a hard working retirement I spend much more time and energy as an abstract fine artist working with all media from old-fashioned paper, pencil and paint to creative collage and canvas.
