So many strange visions...

The eighty-four panels of 'So many strange visions' capture a diverse range of dreams and imaginings ranging from Bosch to John Wayne Gacy to a horse walking into a bar.


A larger picture overpainted onto the panels links the books together. Painted in mottled purples and browns; something like a rapture appears beneath a tree which is blown in the wind and threatening to break ...


The panels are accordian bound into seven books and hang on the wall, the folds in the books fracturing the overdrawing.

It's taken nine weeks to get to the point of my new book being complete ... that's a lot of watercolours and there's a lot that were made on the way.
