Flow 1

Flow 1

This is the first of a series of abstracted calligraphy images, inspired by my time in Japan and the many hours I spent in calligraphy lessons. I struggled for years, as a 'foreign' left-hander, but finally realised .....Read more

London 1: Light

And here's the 'original computer coloured version, which itself was based on a scan of an original pen/paper drawing. Like a 'spot the difference' competition, there are a few things different or missing between the.....Read more
