Postal Art

From July 2014 until May 2020 the collaboration with James Norman took the form of Postal Art. Either  artist could initiate a work, beginning typically with an A1 sheet of cartridge paper. Any form of mark making was acceptable and has included, charcoal, artist acrylic paint, household gloss paint, artist oil paint, pencil, ink, collaged magazine cuttings and photographs, egg tempera, lipstick, rubber ink stamp, burning and animated GIF.​The sheet would be folded and sent back and forth in a padded envelope  in a friendly battle of mark-making until one artist conceded the work was 'complete'.​
