Cogden Tideline 3
Watercolour and ink on Saunders Waterford paper 279mm x 381mm
Another tough day with issues to deal with and a lesson or two learned in my #Letter365 project. But I have got through in one piece and offer this Tidelines related work as my #arteachday piece on Twitter
A Little Bit of Bread and No Cheese
Drawing – ink on paper 152mm x 220mm
Today’s #arteachday post this morning was a little drawing in ink on paper collaged on to Khadi paper. Apart from my #Letter365 piece I havenot been able to work much today. I’m concentrating on preparations for Dorset Art weeks which is only 17 days away now. There’s lots to do and i will have to settle to the fact that a lot won’t get done. C’est la vie!

My interest in Max Ernst has been renewed because of my collage work, but this recurring theme in his work of the moon or sun disk has been haunting me for a while.
Gate Gap Chase Bait
Drawing – ink on paper 147mm x 210mm
Today’s #arteachday piece to gather in the May-o is this little A5 drawing of ink on Somerset paper glued onto a stiffer watercolour paper. Goodness knows where the title came from. It originally had a quite different title but then I started to think about the word gap and its connection to gate and how gate is the Norwegian for road and that a gate was originally the gap, the gateway, rather than the thing that closes the gap and Maypoles and…
