Fear Terrains

By  Paul Newman 2024

Fear Terrain iv Indian ink, acrylic gouache on paper, 30 x 42 cm, 2024

A series of Indian ink studies. These are imagined landscapes, generated initially from the fear of a blank page and starting anew, in drawing, painting as well as personal experience and anxiety. Motifs, gestures and imagery from previous bodies of work naturally seeps into their making.
