Back in the Box

As posted a little while ago, Remnants went back in its box with a little sadness both from me and the gallery at La Dolce Vita, Colne.  Finally, I have got round to sorting everything out and I have now got a little time to reflect.

As part of this process I took photocopies from the comments book and they are fantastic.  I thought I would share what has been said about Remnants.



‘Really impressive and very moving’
D. Claude.  Leeds

‘Emotive, calming’
G. Hensley.  Trawden

‘Very atmospheric and engaging’
I. Cleasby.  Oxford

‘Very beautiful images, dark and sombre but uplifting’
                                    M. Fielding.  Colne

‘Captivating, mesmerising images.  Beautiful.’
                                    Miriam & Andy.  Colne

‘What an unexpected surprise!  Very impressive indeed!’
                                    G. Read.  Colne

‘Simply brilliant and nice to see a local artist’
A. Ul-haq.  Colne



Thank you so much to everyone who visited the exhibition and took time to comment.

Out of the editing room - More Remnants Images

 Last night I finally finished editing some images that had been sat on my SD card for what seemed like an eternity.  Out of those images are some shots that I took in order to fit in with the Remnants project.
As I seem to get to the end of Remnants, I seem to find something else to add to it.  At the moment I've been adding follies to the collection and dry stone walls.  The walls may seem a little dull compaired to other aspects of the project but have you ever stopped to think how they were built and by who?

Now as Remnants draws to an end I am beginning to think about my next project and sitting down to play some more surrealist stuff.  Nothing is coming to light yet but I'm sure it will!
