Hearth & Home Paintings:-
Following on from the Installation Piece I created for Focus Ireland at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in November last year, I am currently working on a series of small Mixed Media on Canvas paintings reflecting some of the themes explored in the 'Showhome' Exhibition. These include: Humans need for shelter; Nomadic Impermanence; and the sense of Community felt in the sharing of an open Fire
.
Hearth & Home Paintings No.s 1;2;3. (All works in progress)
These three are part of a series of six canvases measuring 400 x 400 mm. I am working on each of them in unison, experimenting with different media, and application techniques.
Working each up from sketches which examine geometric elements and the relationship of the Human figure to them.
Sketch for Hearth & Home No.3
It's my intention to develop another six larger canvases looking
at the relationship of the Human Figure to Fire and the Open Flame.
