Never play with matches














I want to bring the images from Il Pizzini out and develop them further. I am beginning to use collage and photography to move my drawing forward. To date, collage and photography are not an end in themselves, I really want to resolve my ideas with drawing.
On a lovely fresh sheet of Archers A2 I drew a grid then an outline map of Venice, as a framework, literally to hang and contain ii pizzini. Pizzini superimposed in a random fashon, then I began some layering. I had bought several sheets of paper from Paperchase with a string grid within the paper. I burnt into the paper with matches to make piercings within the grid. Layered that over the pizzini, and then another sheePlenty to think about.
