A woman’s face. Her expression is sad, lost in her own thoughts maybe. An experimental collage which seems to be complete at this stage. I like it anyway!

Mixed media on paper, the image measures 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm).

Face of man

Experimental painting of a man's face with a monotype drawing mounted on a textured background by Catherine RedmayneExperimental painting: blind contour drawing of a man’s face done with monotype and then mounted on a textured background. Couldn’t think of anything to do next so in the ‘look at later’ pile! Image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm)

Sweet sugar dumpling

A leaping joyous fat lady
So I’m fat – I don’t care!

One of a recent series of figures outlined with heavy black. I love the way the bright colours look like traditional stained glass. I remember dancing to this song way back… Didn’t want to offend with the real title!

I feel for this lady! Mixed media on paper, image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm). Have a giggle!

Blue lady

Lady in orange

head of woman with orange dress on blue backgroundA new addition to my monoprint portraits. This woman was on a multi-coloured collaged background but that had been painted out so the orange is set starkly against the light blue. Mixed media work with collage. Image size about 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm).

Turkish bath

A nude woman has a vaguely oriental background!

Drawing after a sculpture by Frank Dobson. Collage of decorated papers including the monoprint of the drawing – it might be inside a tiled Turkish bath. Image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm).

Phyz

Phyz or face

A collage of decorated oriental papers with the barest minimum of line-work to show the face. Image size 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm approx). The original drawing may have been after a tribal mask – but I can’t recognise it now! It was fun to do anyway.
