Sometimes, it’s interesting to see how an Artist works; to understand the layers that go into creating the finished work. To get an insight into their creative processes, learning that in turning the 3D world into a representation on a 2D canvas, every piece contains a joyful number of problems to solve. I say joyful, because to me, I’m trying to help the piece find a way of saying what I want it to say – and that process of bringing work to life is indeed joyful, liberating and exciting.
With this in mind, I’ve created an ‘In the Studio’ tab – you can find it on the menu – and this contains some of the artworks where I have remembered to capture the journey I’ve taken, the process of mark making and layering that is so important to me.
Usually, capturing it digitally is forgotten as I lose myself in the process of creating the work; judging by the positive feedback though I plan to improve how often I remember to do this and to improve the quality of the slideshows (every day is a school day)
Hope you find them interesting to view. As always, let me know what you think.
Warmly, Tess x
