Beautiful pathways of vivid flowing colours collide into each other to form a striking composition. In this abstract close up image the paint comes alive as the bright colours play against each other. Check out my website here for more information www.markchadwick.co.uk
Medium: Acrylic, oil based ink, linen thread on canvas. / Size: 1220 mm x 1220 mm x 37 mm. / About: Acrylic and textured layers have been built up in a multiple page layout composition. This references back to a symbolic page format inspired from my ‘Book of Threads’ artist book. All is the manifested evidence of my ongoing passionate spirit for exploration, play, textures and discovery of the subliminal and generating of self-enlightenment about the human condition. For contrasting perceptions: there are several levels here / for example in relation to time, energies and colour – between the old (faded, worn down, past chapters – memories/knowledge, traces, remnants) and the new (current pages, chapters, fresh, bright, bold, strong); between the representation of spirit (gold/blue, channels/passage) and worldly matter (earthy, oxide colours, grids/boundaries). Symbolic/parallel meanings are explored through the multiple pages (time, chapters, traces), X’s (as is above, so is below, zero point, vortex, connections), multi-generational vessels (containment, alchemy, reflection, passing on of wisdom/knowledge), passage channels (transition, spirit, motion), stitched threads (attachment, fusion, parallels, spirit/matter, relationships, passage, traces), colours (emotional, spiritual/worldly, energies, alchemy) and the floating leaf (passage, transit, motion, carrier of thought/dreams). Work is from the solo exhibition Elevating the Spirit ... “where connections, relationships and unity are explored through visual language elements and symbology, between one’s inner-self (soul, spirit, life-force, essence), psyche and the outer world. Notions of passage, transition (change), duality, reflection, containment and synthesis (fusion) are contemplated and reflected upon.”
Original artwork / Acryllic on Hemp. / this one was for my mum. she cried when I gave it to her, so i guess I must’ve done something right… lol see more at www.dlightworks.com
Acrylic mixed media, stenciled, layers of tissue paper, very old music sheets, textured with Dulux house acrylic to give raised bits on flowers. Using my fingers, knitting needles and my trusty nail file, done in the same vein as the two paintings I sold on their way to Sydney, Enjoy Kym

I would like to thank Susan and Wayne Davies of Redbubble for their kind permission to use two of their photographs as inspiration for this design. Here are links to their portfolios so you can have a look at their photographs: SUSAN DAVIES WAYNE DAVIES Once again … many thanks to you both.

I decided I should do a painting to show how I feel about my hands – I have an essential tremor, that is only helped by beta blockers (propanolol) or alcohol! Not very practical but more fun. / Anyway, I find that painting also helps – I am rubbish at straight lines, but I go into a sort of meditative state and my hands relax a bit. / So this is a small painting that took a long time, but was quite therapeutic

An acrylic painting of a Northumberland burn which I wandered along earlier this year.
I was admiring a photo taken by Malcolm Chant when I was struck with the idea of using it to make a design from. Malcolm, being a decent chap, gave me permission to use it. Here is the original photo Malcolm took and while you are there you’ll be well advised to take a look at his other great photos too. / I used coloured pencils, a little acrylic and some finerliner penwork for my design. FEATURED BY ART UP CLOSE GROUP – 9th October 2009
ORIGINAL AVAILABLE / view my current eBay listings I could draw more realistic looking hands if I wanted to, but I dunno… I kinda like the way they are a bit peculiar….a bit creature-like. There is so much conformity required to get by in this world. The way I draw hands might be my “inner freak” making its presence felt, I think. medium: graphite, coloured pencil and metallic gold acrylic paint on 185gsm Arches paper size: 29.7cm x 42cm (A3) currently listening to: Heaven – The Chimes…..if you like it, checkout “the 12 mix
