A subject which presented itself, emerging from the collage background. Mixed media. Image 10.5×7.5 inches (27×19 cm). Silly but fun!

Studio table
Seth Apter of The Altered Page invited followers to post a photo of their studio table for the 18th September in the spirit of ‘I’ll show you mine if you show me yours’ – so here it is. Quite tidy today really!

Line dance ready to go

A silly mixed media picture! Image 10×7.5 inches (26×18 cm).
Little flock
© Catherine Redmayne
A ‘found’ subject in this mixed media piece. One head peered out at me, so I added the others. Collage and painting. Image size 7.5 x 10 inches (19×25.5 cm).
At the pond

A boldly coloured version of an earlier drawing. You can see the original charcoal drawing on this blog. (I think I rather prefer the charcoal! You can’t win ’em all.)
Reproduction available here.
Cornfields

Acrylic on collaged papers. A suitable theme for August. Image measures 10×7.5 inches.
Thoughts in a garden

An imaginary setting for a curved shape in complementary colours! Developed from collaged decorated papers combined with a drawn figure and further decoration. Image size 8.25×11.5 inches (21×28 cm) – acrylic media on various papers.
Odalisque for 9th May

A figure cut from a collage of decorated papers affixed to another collage. The whole is quite enigmatic as the figure may be seen as a nude or dressed! The image size is 8×10.5 inches.
Convo

An abstract collage of decorated papers mounted on a monotyped ground. Image 7.5×6.5 inches.
Reproduction available here.
Cheerful garden
© Catherine Redmayne
A suitable picture for Easter and spring. Hope we see the sun… Image 5.5×7.25 inches. This is a mixed media painting which I completed while following an online course with Diane Culhane. There aren’t enough hours in the day to do all the painting I want to – all such fun.
It’s available as a print, greeting card or phone case.
Under the lights

A vivid/lurid background for the drawn figure with a weary face. What is her story? Image size 7.5×6.5 inches (19×16.5 cm).
Hill gods
© Catherine Redmayne
A monotype worked in several layers of gouache on Arches paper. The design is loosely based on a picture of an old turf cutting which is said to represent deities. It is from the Gog Magog Hills – an area steeped in tales of mysterious appearances, buried giants and ghosts. (The name ‘hills’ is slightly misleading as they are not very high: just definitely above the flat plain and therefore giving a commanding view.)
Artwork is 7.5×5.5 inches (19×14 cm).
Ladder to nowhere
© Catherine Redmayne
A cheerful abstract pattern made of my decorated papers with additional paintwork. This painting was sold at an exhibition but it is available as a print, greetings card or phone case here.
Size of artwork 7.5×7.5 inches (19×19 cm).
Jurassic Park
© Catherine Redmayne
A collaged pattern of pieces cut from prepared papers and stuck on a monotype background. The theme was suggested by a couple of the shapes but the pattern is abstract really and is one of an experimental set using simplified 3-tone versions of photographs as a starting point. 7×5 inches (18×13 cm).
I had this framed and Adam the framer said it was foxes so I renamed it Vulpes vulpes! But it’s still listed under the old title here.
Dreary, bleary Alice
© Catherine Redmayne
A small picture which evolved through collage and many layers of paint. The title comes I think from Mervyn Peake’s Letters from a Lost Uncle and always makes me smile. Image 6.75 inches square (17 cm square) on heavyweight watercolour paper.
Ash cloud

A layered painting with consequent texture. Essentially unplanned but pursued until I felt it was right. Size 5×7 inches (12.5×18 cm).
Church ruin
© Catherine Redmayne
Another very small experimental piece in mixed media. Only 4 inches square (10 cm square). Rather accidental from start to finish but I was pleased with the colours.
Tau crosses
© Catherine Redmayne
A tiny mixed media picture with an unusual form of cross. The design was taken from a very old pew-end carving seen in a Cornish church. The image is 4×4 inches (10×10 cm).
