Hello,
I thought it's about time I shared something new here. Over the last few months I've been working away creating images, just taking my time and not putting too much pressure on myself to post anything until I am ready to do so. It has meant being more relaxed with my social media (not that I was every an avid poster really) and I feel ok with that. I know lots of people have been doing the same thing and feeling a similar way too. It does mean I have collected a few images together, many of which will never be seen by anyone other than me, and it's been a great time for me to experiment and really make what I fancy. So it's been a very enjoyable time work-wise. Some of those images have now become new items which I've put into my shop SharonFarrowArt and I want to share those with you.
First up are some Giclee art prints. The idea behind these illustrations was to give a positive vibe and message. I love incorporating text into my work, and the text used in these images was inspired by music I've been listening to, things that were happening personally to me at the time, and in the general goings on of life. I feel that the words are open enough to be interpreted in anyway that relates to you personally. I also experimented with adding linocut areas on some of these designs. I always have a lot of fun creating textures but lino helps me to get an even coating of colour in some areas, whilst still providing subtle texture, I like that contrast. I had a lot of fun (and made a lot of mess, always a bonus)!
