NEW WOODCUTS - a few of these printed and editioned images will be exhibited on COLLECTIVE INK Exhibition to be held @ the GFI Gallery, 30 Park Drive, Port Elizabeth, SOUTH AFRICA, 4 -30 April 2018
The art of looking @ pictures: we have the choice - either to be spoon fed, or stimulate & strengthen our creative imagination by training the visionary senses to observe & interpret what's beyond the surface of a picture? The important role & aim of the artist is to encourage visual literacy! "Hyperrealism is both Breathtaking, and Boring. I want to see the Artist's hand in the work of art. I want to see the essence and the spirit of the subject, and I want to see a celebration of the Medium in the work of art." - Janet Badger)
