Edge of Knowing No.6

Mixed media collage with inks, acrylics and handmade papers on paper.
Conservation framing in dark stained wooden box frame.

I have called this series of paintings and photographs “Edge of Knowing”. I like the way that describes how I feel when starting a new painting – leaning on years of experience but not knowing a thing!  I have used a grid of some kind in most images, representing the need to understand and order the world. But within the grid are abstract marks and shapes, the mystery of the unexplored unknown. I have put in undeciphered signs suggesting there is meaning I can’t see yet.
