A fourth batch of impressionistic images created inspired by the foliage and November blues. Paying close attention to how the treetops were once cut into stumps but now have exploded into speckled oblong shapes as the sky bleeds through the leaves that have fallen.
A third assortment of images created from the impressionism of the vivd blues, yellows and oranges of this time of year. Inspired a great deal by the wondrous paintings of Monet.
A second set of images revolving around the foliage and skies of November. Revisiting these areas the treetops are starting to get more barren with the speckled sky peeping through more as Winter creeps forward.
An impressionistic series exploring the crisp blue skies in November, when the speckled burnt umber and yellow leaves start to fall and bleed into the skyline.
A second set of images for this weeks kick about on Red’s Kingdom inspired by the Soundsuits of Nick Cave. This film and the coloured dancing orbs comprised of nothing more then some sequins thrown into a large wok and at times shook about for a bit of moment, It’s always enjoyable figuring out what you can get away in the most analogue way possible.
This weeks kick about on Red’s Kingdom is the glorious dancing soundsuits of Nick Cave. I knew that I wanted to make a film, I wanted it to be loud and primal and I wanted to use some sort of fabric or elements that could makeup the intricate soundsuits of Nick Cave’s creations. I decided to chuck a bag of shiny sequins of various shapes into a large wok and film it! Bringing down the shutter speed of my camera and aperture while defocusing so that the tacky butterflies, hearts and stars become nothing but dancing spherical orbs lit ablaze with a tiny but powerful led light. It was one of those moments were everything fell into place so nicely. The edit was a dream and thoroughly enjoyable.
A third and final set of mirage landscapes inspired by Augustus Osborne Lamplough.
A second set of images created for this weeks kick about over on Red’s Kingdom inspired by the paintings of Augustus Osbourne Lamplough. Creating these images uses a few different methods of mixing different mediums, First the images of the initial landscapes were captured on camera, then they were transformed in the edit by adding more yellows and browns to the already parched landscape, finally adding multiples of different shapes on top of each other with low opacities to emulate the layered effects of Lamplough’s watercolour paintings.
