I’m stuck.
And I think my work looks stuck.
It may be because I’m in a kind of artists limbo. My work is changing, but I don’t know what it’s changing into and whether it’s any good. I’m forcing things at the moment because I often think that carrying on despite not quite knowing what you’re doing is the best way to develop and change. I can’t tell whether that’s really true or not at the moment. But it all feels a bit hopeless at the current stage I’m in. Nothing seems to be working. I need some new inspiration. Perhaps I need to break away from what I was doing, which started 8 months ago, and throw myself into what seems to be occurring more and more.
But then I have to realise what that ‘thing’ is and I don’t know that I can pinpoint it.
Is it the object versus painting aspect? So then how do I use that?
Or is it the monochrome colour aspect? Same question, how do I proceed with that?
Or is it the importance of surface and re-using materials? What happens when I run out?
Am I supposed to combine all three?
But they don’t combine, that’s the point I’m at now.
But I don’t know that I can make them work as seperate aspects.
