Is that cigarette making you feel a bit nauseous?! Me too! Time for some 'spiritual bluetooth' then... Welcome to the first of a series of spontaneous drawings and paintings that i am working on. Up first is 'Cigarette Sickhead'.
So as i said, i am currently in the process of creating spontaneous drawings which i do not plan out before putting pen or ink to paper. Whenever I get the urge to express myself in a fluid, painterly fashion, i just pick up a brush and let the sensations within flow out into the visual world. I feel as though i have set up a direct link between my hand movements and my psyche, and this 'process of art' acts as a kind of 'spiritual bluetooth' between the inside and the outside of my mind, as Patrick Hussey, my cohort at Run-Riot, so aptly put it. You can expect more from this series as i explore the recesses of my mind, my fascination with faces and the immediacy of my brush strokes...
