http://watermarks-art.blogspot.com/2011/08/wimperis-on-wall.html

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Friday, 5 August 2011. Wimperis on the Wall. Today is the opening of my exhibition at Beside The Wave. All of the paintings are now on their web site and looking glorious in the gallery, framed and beautifully hung. There is a watery section with paintings of the Helford River, where I am so lucky to live,. Where I spend my time painting in all weathers and all times of the day and night. Even Brad Pitt is in town filming his new movie,.

Watermarks: Introducing Lindsay Olson

http://watermarks-art.blogspot.com/2008/12/introducing-lindsay-olson.html

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Wednesday, 3 December 2008. Now I'm entering my third year working on the Waterways Project. Immersing myself in the project has changed my work in ways I could not have imagined. And I will be sharing this in future posts. The slide show gives you some idea of the wet areas around my home near Chicago. Even in this area of dense population, it's possible to find tranquillity on the streams, rivers and lakes. Lake Michigan # 8. Beautiful...

Watermarks: Introducing Tina Mammoser

http://watermarks-art.blogspot.com/2008/12/introducing-tina-mammoser.html

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Monday, 8 December 2008. I first learned to paint here in London so my water paintings used to be of the dark, gloomy Thames river. Running through the city or rivers and coast in Scotland (where I first lived here in the UK). In fact I remember my very first attempt at painting the river - it was awful! London Oil on board, 2001). A few years later I spent time painting in Pouch Cove, Newfoundland (hi Jeanette! Belmont Harbour, and runs...

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Sunday, 31 July 2011. The Drained Lake, Victoria Park. The Drained Lake - Victoria Park - July 2011. 8" x 10" pen and sepia ink in Moleskine sketchbook. This week I walked home from my physio at the hospital via Victoria Park. I planned on sketching the lake on the basis that it must surely have been refilled for the summer months. All this in the middle of summer after the schools have broken up. Every time I have visited Victoria Park ...

Watermarks: Cornwall in May - Vivien

http://watermarks-art.blogspot.com/2011/06/cornwall-in-may-vivien.html

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Monday, 27 June 2011. Cornwall in May - Vivien. Dawn across the bay, oil about 14 ins or so across. Life has been getting in the way of me posting here so I thought I'd do a big post of images from a trip to Cornwall in May. Most have been on my blog but you can see them together here. Sunset over the bay, coloured pencil. I use whatever medium either fits in with the time/family committments I have available or suits the subject. Porthg...

Art First, Science Second: Particle Detectors Subatomic Bomb Squad

http://artfirstsciencesecond.blogspot.com/2014/08/particle-detectors-subatomic-bomb-squad.html

Saturday, August 30, 2014. Particle Detectors Subatomic Bomb Squad. Dr Don Lincoln explains how bomb detection methods are similar to how physicists hunt for particles after proton collisions at the LHC. This film is really funny and educational. Very entertaining! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm an artist using science as the foundation of my studio practice. Combining the beauty of art and the elegance of science is my idea of a great adventure.

Watermarks: Klimt: Park of Schönbrunn

http://watermarks-art.blogspot.com/2011/09/park-of-schonbrunn-1916-by-gustav-klimt.html

Watermarks is a small community of artists who make art from water. Sunday, 18 September 2011. Klimt: Park of Schönbrunn. Park of Schönbrunn (1916) by Gustav Klimt. This is another landscape painting involving water by Austrian artist Gustav Klimt. This time it's a bit of a puzzle. The painting is of a lake in a Schönbrunn Park. In Vienna, Austria. Last November I tried to do a copy of this painting - see Schönbrunn Park - after Klimt. But I think the original is soooooo much better! Watermarks is a smal...

Art First, Science Second: Riparian Zone

http://artfirstsciencesecond.blogspot.com/2014/04/riparian-zone.html

Friday, April 11, 2014. Riparian Zone # 1. The biologically distinctive area that borders rivers, streams and creeks, the Riparian Zone, acts as a protective buffer between land and water. Large undisturbed Riparian zones filter our water, mitigate flooding and provide protection for the diverse life forms that live in, on and near our waterways. “Riparian Zone” celebrates this natural zone and expresses the pressure urban development places on these fragile pieces of land. You can see more work here.

Art First, Science Second: Riparian Zone Process

http://artfirstsciencesecond.blogspot.com/2014/06/riparian-zone-process.html

Tuesday, June 10, 2014. Detail, Riparian Zone Textile #1. Seed beads, embroidery, silver thread on dyed linen. For the past 6 weeks, I have been working away on the series "The Riparian Zone". I just submitted the work for a show at the Water Street Studio. And was forced to think about my process. The task for me was to work my way backwards in order to tell a coherent narrative about how the work was created. You can see more drawings here. After creating more than 25 horizontal watercolor and ink draw...
