Catching My Eye

......Or as they used to call it at art school - visual research! These power poles found by the side of the road on my daily walks about the country side - I love the stark lines drawn against the sky, the glittering jewellery of the glass insulators, and the insect legs of the circuit breakers. I don't know if this takes me anywhere yet, but it feeds into the visual language of my work and its just something i enjoy looking at. Do we need to understand the reasons for everything? Is not finding pleasure in the seemingly mundane not reason enough?
