Wednesday Wonderings #20 ‘Recycling and Art’

At several stages in my Art life people have reminded me of the importance of renewal and recycling in Art. Not only in terms of what I create but what I create upon or with.

This week has seen me take this idea by the horns again as I have taken two large used canvas and repainted them ready for a couple of new paintings. It definitely makes me feel good to know that this beautiful canvas has had a life already and will continue to be used.

My other new area of recycling and Art is coming in the form of recycled books. I can’t reveal much more yet but I’m hoping to submit to a wonderful exhibition in the next couple of months which will see me heading down the sculpture route!

I have spent over a month now doing a song a day in art, and it has been so inspirational. I feel this may go on a long time yet as I always have music in my mind! Don’t forget to pop your requests on my FB, Twitter or Instagram! My favourite images over the last week have been these two!image

Enjoy the the end of March and I will see you next week for April Fool’s Day!

Happy wonderings
