Photography, Color on Paper
Size: 12 W x 17 H x 1 D in
Part of an ongoing series inspired by some half remembered dream about gardening. Now I like gardens, I like the flowers plants shrubs and trees that inspire me to make pictures, what I am not so keen on is the act of gardening itself, and so I am content to only dream of green thumbs and horticulture. Mostly inspired by the parks and gardens near my south London home. They are digital photgraphs that I then combine layer and manipulate in Photoshop. They are then made into limited edition of 10 Giclée prints on Hahnemuhle German Etching 310gsm paper, which is one of the most popular media worldwide for artwork and photography. I use the Epson 9900 with its 11 colour Ultrachrome pigment based ink technology for similar reasons to produce archival quality prints. For maximum permanence mount behind glass and do not display in strong sunlight.

True story. As a child, in the North of England, under the blankets, in the dark, I listened to the Top 30 UK Singles on Radio Luxembourg 208. The music faded in and out as it beamed over the North Sea, and because of this you often never really heard the whole song. There were gaps where white noise blocked out the music. You had to use your imagination listening to Radio Luxembourg. Later when I recognised the same song playing on the BBC it had somehow lost something, the uncertainty, the mystery, the potential maybe? The romance was gone, there it was in front of me, fixed, and easy, with no gaps for me to fill in. The BBC's version never quite lived up to expectations. I try to produce pictures that remind me of listening to Radio Luxembourg. I also stand by this quote ' An artist cannot speak about his art any more than a plant can discuss horticulture ' . Jean Cocteau As quoted in Newsweek (16 May 1955)
