Castro-1 
Posted May 23, 2011 by Robert Logan

This is the most recent of my figurative works- in a very similar vein to the previous post about Charles Dickens. This image is of Castro, and as with the the Dickens picture the original photograph was doctored. In this case however, I’ve based the drawing on the doctored image. There should be another figure [...]

1867 Dickens 2 large 
Posted February 1, 2011 by Robert Logan

This is the most recent of a new series of figurative works I’m working on this year. The ideas are very similar to my abstract work- it’s all to do with how we understand and interpret visual codes, and looks at various questions around representational art and “truth”. This particular drawing is based on a [...]

desperation takes hold; call to order

Something completely different

This is the first piece of a new body of figurative work  I’m developing, which is quite a change from my previous work which is shown on this website. Like lots of artists I tend to shift the focus of my practice periodically as a way, I suppose, of trying to keep developing and moving [...]

Paint- Rollo, Weds night

Had a very hectic time at work this week, so much so by Wednesday I was convinced it was Thursday. This happens with me from time to time, I’m told it’s not life threatening. Anyway, having decided it was Thursday, I was weighing up whether to be responsible and work late, or go to a [...]

New Blood Art Blog

Welcome to our blog. This is a space where you can find observations, thoughts, considerations and information - voiced in a personal way - from the perspectives of our artists, and from each other. Making art can sometimes be a lonely practice, particularly for artists who are starting out. Our artists very much value your comments about the artwork they exhibit on Newbloodart, as well as the opportunity to build a relationship with you. So please feel free to respond briefly or at length to whatever you find here.*

Our artists use this space to write about everything from the frustrations of work; exhibits that inspire; radio programmes enjoyed; technical problems to be resolved; difficult decisions about what to show, and just when a piece can or must be called finished. They sometimes use it to publicize exhibitions and talks; to publicly resist the need for a consistent style; to make unusual analogies, comparisons and connections (and, occasionally, to make embarrassing admissions). Click on the artists below to follow their strands.

We look forward to reading what you think.
