Repetition

'Mark E Smith'

graphite and eraser on paper/30 x 21cm/April 2008

In tribute to one of this parish's musical heroes, a repost of a repost of an original (faithfully observing the 3 R's of 'Repetition, repetition, repetition', of course - I'd like to believe the subject would approve) of a drawing, processed almost a decade ago, of Mark E Smith, who sadly passed away yesterday.

His art will endure, as it has already for 40 glorious years.

The Wrexham Open 2017 - a Photo Essay

Currently showing at the ‘Undegun’ gallery and studio space in Wrexham town centre, the Wrexham Open 2017 art exhibition, featuring a wide range of contemporary work by professional and amateur artists from the local area and beyond, including a couple of my recent ‘Woodscapes’ (#2 and #3) which I was fortunate to have selected (from a submission of three) for inclusion. For the first time in a few years, it’s good to see one’s work in the context of others’.

The first sighting of my ‘Woodscapes’ #2 and #3 in context.
