Paris Showdown

I have entered this piece in the Paris Showdown, apparently the top 128 entrants are able to enter the physical work into the Paris exhibition so fingers crossed, would love to show Parassita there. If you have the time you can vote for the piece here http://www.saatchionline.com/showdown/match/showdown/5/artist/75921/art/1231839 #Parassita #carnegriffiths #Fashion #Paris #Saatchi #Sketches #Parassitadrawing #LondonArtisrt #SaatchiShowdown #EastLondonArtist #illustration #wat

Ink_d Gallery Brighton

Great trip down to the south Coast today to see Dan @Ink_d gallery – they are between shows at the moment and preparing for UK renegade potter and leading anarchist Carrie Reichardt representing the Great British Empire as ‘Cruel Britannia’ through her unique anarchic vision. Still the gallery looks great even in its interim period and well worth a visit for the range of artwork on display. I had made the trip to talk through some of the newest pieces I had produced and l

Roots, ink and rooibos tea on watercolour paper

Just finished this piece and pleased with the way the colour works with this type of tea. Also working the roots was a very fluid process, would enjoy making an abstract piece made up entirely of this type of form. #art #inkandwatercolour #inkillustration #carnegriffiths #londonartist #roots #londonart #Sketches #artforsale #illustration #watercolour #ink #paper #PenampInk #sketch #Eyestorm #Carne #artwork #inkonpaper #inkd

Flower of Life – Lightbox

Back from the Signal Gallery’s private view showing Dan Baldwin’s work – Stunning new canvas piece ‘Cyclone’. Thought I’d publish the image of the first large scale backlit drawing ‘Flower of Life’. The final piece will be housed in a large lightbox (yet to be designed and built) #lightbox #art #SeanMadden #backlit #drawingssketches #lit #londonart #lightbox #AndrewMcAttee #JohnSquire #JoramRoukes #ink #artists #Eyestorm #light #artwork #AutomaticDrawings #londonartexhibiti

Flower of life..

Wasn’t aware of this geometrical design until today – going to use it as the starting point for 2 new pieces 1 small and one large quadrant piece to work alongside closer. I have photographed this piece with the inks still wet, this is exactly the effect that I am achieving working with Harwood King using varnish layers on the prints.. it helps to give a real vibrancy to the colour. #secret #WorkforSale #carnegriffiths #flower #floweroflife #Sketches #mathematics #giclee #wat

Closer

Finished work on the 1 metre square piece Closer, was a challenge working both in a quadrant format and also at that scale in pen ink and of course tea. Closer illustrates our connection to nature as a two way relationship, our dependency and our appreciation This slideshow requires JavaScript. #art #WorkforSale #carnegriffiths #closer #Sketches #Drawing #ink #drawings #leytonstone #PenampInk #inkdgallery #Eyestorm #paintings #artwork #AutomaticDrawings #inkd

Whats New…

A visit to Harwood King to see Quentin & Nyle on Friday to have a look at the prints of “The Harvest & Rose – & they are looking Gorgeous, really do the originals justice and more than that using varnish they capture part of the creation process of the pieces, – a few tweaks here and there and selecting a printing paper for the finished 2 editions and we’ll be there, look out for them they’ll be around very soon. Then after Harwood King I visited Ink_d gallery in Brighton to
