Today
was much more relaxed then our manic adventure in Margate yesterday! I finished
writing my artist statement as we are all going to meet up again tomorrow to do
the finishing touches and get the proposal sent off as soon as possible.
I had
a look at the objects I had collected on Saturday and cleaned them a bit to
make it easier to paint on as most were covered in mud (and a bit smelly!).

I
started painting some scenes onto a few, they are not finished yet but here is
a photo of the work in progress:
I have
decided to try and do around 30 small paintings, and planning to spend
around 1-3 hours on each one, depending on the size and level of detail.
Although I am aware of the tight timescale and other demands from my studio
project so I may have to adapt my plan later. I will have to go searching again
for more objects to paint on and take more photos at some more locations.

- Westgate Gardens- 10
paintings
- Canterbury High
Street- 5 paintings
- Dane John
Gardens/city wall- 10 paintings
- Mill Park/river- 5
paintings
Hopefully
I will finish them around 11th March so I can reposition them back in
their original locations, document them and then advertiste the 'search for the
missing paintings' before the week for our final exhibition (ideally at Crate).
