Week five in the studio:<\/p>\n

Very mild this week but absolutely throwing it down, I arrived wet and my coat was still wet when I left in the afternoon. I’m writing another post on the Doncaster Art Fair that interrupted my building. Today I wanted to treat the leaves so they can retain colour and paint out more of the big drawing.<\/p>\n

First I painted in the leaves in the big drawing with Indian ink, then I treated the leaves with PVA and then painted over the big drawing with more white. I only took photographs at the end for reference so these go around the space.<\/p>\n

The very light wall taken down further to facilitate projection.<\/p>\n

Wednesday started badly, it was chucking it down and the walk to the studio was very unpleasant. I didn’t really know where to start so I set up the light and put the heater on to dry my shoes.<\/p>\n

first I turned the leaves which were dry on top but still wet underneath.<\/p>\n

Then I dug out the sketch books and did some work on the garden sculptures.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These are sketches towards stand alone sculptures but also inform the look and feel of the space, particularly the right hand wall, opposite the projection wall.<\/p>\n

I then cut the wood I prepared last week, or the week before, to build small sculptures exploring the garden in Balby.<\/p>\n

The second picture taken with flash to emphasise how dark it was at that point.<\/p>\n

I rounded the day off by painting the projection wall out more and resolving to purchase small stepladders.<\/p>\n

Friday was a better day weather wise and therefore lighter.<\/p>\n

The leaves were dry so I set out to put fishing line across the space and then hang sets of them.<\/p>\n

Putting the line in and then stringing the leaves took me most of the day and I ended up with this<\/p>\n

I did some work on the sketchbooks and thought about the effect I wanted for the leaves in the space, is it getting too busy?<\/p>\n

I won’t be here next week so that will give me time to think about what I want from the space and also to work on the projection \u2013 in sketchbooks and mentally. I still need stepladders and I need to get the computer and webcams down to the site.<\/p>\n
