Material Testing

Watercolour pens (dry on dry), gel pens, layering

PUSHING BOUNDARIES

Adding water to watercolour pens, laying with contact then adding permanent marker

head

The unintentional visual representation of the layers of cognitive chaos in my mind. How many voices can there be at once? How many are true? If I am not my thoughts, actions, emotions then what am I? my soul… which voice is that?

heart

Wrapped tightly in layers of cling wrap, suffocating, distorting, constricting. No wonder I have no idea what I feel if this is the obstacle between us.

hands

Extended colouring process. Watercolour pens, begun as a student example, matched with coloured pastel gel pens then layered with contact and permanent marker lines.
