Mixed media and gaffa tape on cardboard.

I really like the process of painting and the less expectations the better. So when a cardboard box turns up I tend to paint on it, just because I can and especially because it doesn't matter. Box paintings are really my favorite things to do, I feel a bit shy about their randomness, but when it comes down to it I like them better for it. Even Better!
In terms of framing, the crusty cardboard paintings look great in a nice clean deep plexiglass frame. it gives them room to breathe and shows off their character. Or you can just staple them on the wall as I do.

b 1971 UK Self taught artist working with many mediums but liking paint the best. Painting is just a language that I am more comfortable with, it has an honesty, it is what it is. My work is very unprocessed, direct, I don't see as I paint , just look at it sometime later, then start again or leave it alone until another time. I work with layers, building them up and scraping back, finding stuff I had forgotten about, the painting starts to get interesting, to develop its own past. The word paintings write themselves with no restraint, if I'm not sure I keep writing over, but ultimately the words, however buried, have been said.
