Accidental drawings

Free to view and visible on a pavement or road near you. Accidental drawings generally involve urban decay and repair of some sort or other and just need a small adjustment in vision to be recognised and appreciated as such.

A particular favourite of mine is this grid of lines in Heddington, that, after several failed attempts, I finally managed to capture.  

Dynamic Duos

Having previously mentioned the benefits of the supportive and stimulating presence of others, those fortunate enough to meet just one significant other have come to my attention.

Catupulted to high level visibility through his recent appointment as Greek's new Finance Minister, Yanis Varoufakis, I discovered, is also known for his joint venture Vital Space founded in 2010 with his partner, Landscape Artist Danae Stratou. A  fascinating project that provides a participatory platform for those that believe in the power of art to change the world.

Design duo Wayne & Geraldine Hemingway , made famous by their joint fashion venture Red or Dead have penetrated the world of architecture and festivals  with their inspired vision for  Britain - check out Hemingway Designs for proof.

And in previous blog posts I came across the mention of designers Charles and Rae Eames, artists Gilbert and George and filmmakers Ila Beka and Louise Lemoine.
