  • Configuration: 7, 2015

      This piece used the Victoria station photograph as its source but with the harsh clusters of colours found in ‘Configuration: 6’, where I didn’t have the compositional choice I used in ‘Configuration: 5’ and the paintings before, I decided to reintroduce the ‘no adjacent coloured tiles’ rule. The colours were decided by colours randomly

This method has really

    Acrylic on Paper. For this piece, I decided to double up the picture of the pins, to make a larger work. Then Instead of having effectively one continuous line, there are 4 separate groups of lines here. Each group has an umbrella colour: Red, blue, green and yellow. I used watercolour so that I could
