This was my favourite commission in some time! It arrived literally when my life was ‘upside down’, making the work was therapeutic and healing.
Thank you @davidmckendrickstudio@paperboy.magazine
I intend to make more of these impromptu balanced sculptures, reorienting them with the camera. Maybe as a new participatory series on my website - would you make one?

My name has 12 letters - a clock has 12 numbers 😊 I made a roundel - it will be added to the bottom right of all my paper based works.

Red Flag & Balloon
A diagram for a sculpture…
A red flag is a signal indicating danger, a problem or need for caution. A balloon inflated with helium is commonly used for decoration at parties and celebrations.

Made using all the colours from the Winsor & Newton Promarker range. Each marker was held stationary for varying durations on G.F Smith Naturalis AB White Matt paper 120gsm. The paper absorbed the ink, forming organic radiating circular dots. Unique/signed £1000 + P&P / please DM to enquire or buy direct from website.
Footnote: I first made Felt-Tip Prints ‘officially’ when I was a student at the Royal College of Art in 1998. I was subverting the marker pens my Dad used in his design studio that I encountered in the 1980’s. I always loved the consequential marks that his ‘Magic Markers’ made on the sheets of paper that sat below the page he was working on. The areas he lingered the longest the bolder the mark. So frustrated that my drawing and illustration abilities did not allow me to make the marker renderings I desired, I embraced my frustration, and literally removed my hand from the process and let the pen make the work. 30 years later, I am still exploring the same process and materials. I enjoy its connection to graphic design from days gone. Even though the ‘Magic Markers’ of the 1980’s are no more, the Winsor & Newton Promarkers still have ‘magic’ within when used like wands. I love the colours and forms these pen create, almost on their own, abracadabra…

The Geometry of Collaboration
Architecture is, at its core, a collective act.
This exercise by @eatockdaniel distills that idea to its purest form—twelve hands, five seconds, and a single, unified line.
