Keith Climpson has an exhibition of works in the Studio Gallery at the Salamanca Arts Centre. Working with the subtle shifts of colour and light, these painting need time to absorb the soft messages that are intrinsic to colour and form.
The exhibition runs until October 30th, and the Studio Galleryis in the Salamanca Arts Centre, up the top of the stairs and to the right.

Recently I posted a blog about my daughters new website, but I neglected to mention that she has a blog style news page which she is updating with all sorts of interesting posts in relation to drama and things ‘arty’ that take her interest. It’s a great read if you have an interest in live theatre and performance art.
Potting again
general, my art, potters - No Comments » - Posted on October, 8 at 8:23 am
Pottery classes have started up for me again and this time the project is to make bowls. The intention is to have a ’set’ of bowls that will represent the body, and specific glazing that suggests the genetic carriage of life’s experience. The challenge is to actually create bowls that have a sense of the formal - being similar in shape etc - and get the glaze to actually work. Big ideas for a learner potter, but that’s what creates the drive to ‘do better’, whatever that means, because at the end of the day it is all subjective opinion (the idea of perfection that is) so mostly it is the simple pleasure of potting that takes me there.
Printing again

Exhaustion set in over the weekend, but it was back to the press again today. My desert is gradually shifting in the Precipice sequence. Tomorrow will be grinding the lithograph stone day to start the next print in the sequence, and also the top etching plate, which is the black lines, will be reworked.
