My 2023 OXFORDSHIRE ARTWEEKS entry is confirmed for the May county wide ARTS FESTIVAL. My venue number, in the festival catalogue, is 514. Although the festival is in May, it has become traditional for me to FIDGET my ARTWEEKS profile with regular installation updates during February, March and April, only settling on a final installation in the week prior to the festival opening. My official profile can be found via:

oxfordshire artweeks 2023

I am participating in Oxfordshire ARTWEEKS again this year. My new profile will be available from early February and will be updated through to the festival in May. As usual, my exhibition will be virtual with different perspectives available on my ARTWEEKS profile: artweeks.revad.com and Instagram: instagram.com/codedimages.

UPDATED 2023-03-14: now showing installations 1, 2 and 3.

Is this the final installation for May? Right now it feels good, but with several weeks to go it is impossible to say. Further inspiration can emerge at any time without warning. . .

power of 13

SEASON’S GREETINGS (POWER OF 13 / 2022)

Today, I made my (now) traditional new rendering of my POWER OF 13 seasonal tree. I started this around ten years ago. The concept was triggered by Sol Lewitt’s ALL IFS ANDS OR BUTS CONNECTED BY GREEN LINES. I just used numbers instead and gave each digit a unique colour, an idea I have used elsewhere in: https://cddmgs.wordpress.com/2018/03/08/100-significant/ . Anyway, here is this years rendition , made using Procreate, on an iPad Mini 6, with an Apple Pencil:

  • digital sketches made using an iPad, Apple Pencil and Procreate

Getting started with the idea of drawing my CONNECT series using a neurographic hand drawn aesthetic. A series I have named as NEUROCONNECT. These early outcomes were drawn on an iPad using an Apple Pencil and Procreate. Some tweaks may have been applied via the iPad version of Affinity Photo. I plan to do some real world drawing in a similar style of fluid mark making.
