CROSS POLLINATION

Example Pages
I think all creative disciplines; art, design, architecture, fashion, theatre, film, food and music, can sometimes fuse together and cross-pollinate to nourish and create new ideas or forms.
I have done design work in the arts for many years and enjoy the challenge of having to think in a different, yet still creative way. It makes me flexible, curious and often self-referential. One discipline can feed and provide ideas for the other e.g. the arrangement of text on a poster can be a useful reference for words on canvas.
I recently completed a piece of design for a local interior design company. They required a down loadable, 5-page floor planner for their clients. I hand drew the room features and digitized them; this created a softer image than hard architectural lines and the rest I made with design software. Tools cross-pollinating!
They were pleased with the results and I really loved doing this piece of work.

Now it's back to working with found objects, paper and ink. More on that later…
