VIEW IN MY ROOM
United Kingdom
Painting, Acrylic on Wood
Size: 60 W x 60 H x 0.5 D in
The big square board was found in a skip and was originally the back of an ikea chest of draws. This painting possibly has more layers and washes than all of my others. I was living in the attic room of a leaky squat in Bristol in rainy season and so overnight the painting could alter as it would only fit in two places in the room, both damp. That coupled with its blankness and the blankness of each stare i painted and repainted and sprayed over led to it being one of the most frustrating objects i owned at the time. When our eviction date had finally been set i decided i could not take it with me and put it out on the street corner staring off down the hill. An hour later it was gone from my life forever except for this photograph.

I work with what I've got and what i find. I have a fondness for old doors and the back panels of wardrobes when i paint. For sculpture i love rusty metal and find welding and working with metal soothing. I normally paint from very small thumbnails of edited images (phosho) and love the challenge of painting for other people rather than myself so am happy to take commissioned work. I sleep on average 2-3 hours a night and have always thought it best to fill my time quietly in the pages of sketchbooks and journals. I suffer from perfectionism honesty insomnia and poverty but as all of these things are long term conditions i am quite used to it all. I believe that everyone has the capacity for creativity and should express themselves. Writing and drawing and painting are as essential to me as air (and tea).
