Travel Heads

"Travel Heads"

"Travel Heads" is another little A5 diary of artworks which I work on almost daily. Like the ones that come before it, the work is cumulative and reflects my everyday experiences and memories. Each page is worked on spontaneously and largely intuitive although some get a little more anal and message driven. Sometimes I just can’t help myself, it’s so hard not to be judgmental and preacher-like when there are so many situations in our lives we need to be critical of.  They all involve the use of mixed media and collage which allows me to combine often tenuously related subjects , distinct genres and materials.

"Travel Heads" is a small collection of 30 drawings from one of my 2002 diaries done in response to a trip to Europe. I have recently edited these for exhibition. Hopefully you will get a smile and enjoy my images. I will post some more in this series in due course.

In touch
to touch the skin
to squeeze the hand
is there a tiny bridge
across which
awareness becomes more real
is the proximity of reality
too small a space
to contain the difference of ideas
time becomes too precious
the spark too weak
the memory too misty
the intensity is
softened
by the passing
of time.

Art works

 I see you've found my site for some of the things I do in the art areas.This is my place to show you a sample of my work . I hope you enjoy and keep visiting as the site grows.

"Tokyo Diary" is another little A5 diary of artworks which I work on almost daily. Like the ones that come before it, the work is cumulative and reflects my everyday experiences and memories. Each page is worked on spontaneously and largely intuitive although some get a little more anal and message driven. Sometimes I just can’t help myself, it’s so hard not to be judgmental and preacher-like when there are so many situations in our lives we need to be critical of.  They all involve the use of mixed media and collage which allows me to combine often tenuously related subjects , distinct genres and materials.

This is a sample of my most recent little drawings from one of my diaries after a stay in Japan in 07/08.

Hope you enjoy my travel work,
Jack
