I am inspired to draw from my posted blog drawings because they look so different.
Also posting drawings on-line gives them a sort of strange authentification.
Authenticity is a big word these days and is always used in conjunction with the words 'questions of' authenticty.
Why are we so suspicious in todays world that we must question the very idea of authenticity.
I am interested in myths of authenticity .... like the Willow Pattern itself and the story that comes from the design on the plate; mention it to anyone and they think it is a pattern that was developed in the Far East but no, it was developed in Britain in the late eighteenth century by manufacturers trying to sell more pottery
This inspires a series of small drawings ....
