These are crops from four of the pieces in my series 'towards parity'. Living with them up on my studio wall for a while has enabled me to see patterns within the patterns.

'Towards Parity' – a series of seven works based on the headlines from the print editions of the Financial Times from 24 September to 1 October — a week of turmoil in the financial markets following the Conservative Party's mini-budget of 23 September 2022.

This is a new series, although I'm still working on the details. This piece is based on yesterday's headline from the Financial Times concerning the slump of the pound. I wasn't sure that these were working but having printed out a couple of colour variations I'm liking the way it's going now.

A refresh of my studio window art – my name up in lights, well, blocks…

Sep 24, 2022, 6:01 

this was one of the less affected 'destroyed' Polaroids (quick recap: 10 days soaking in water, then an overnight bleach solution). Today's developments have been to peel apart the front layer from the emulsion, add some floor cleaner (with a lemon fragrance, not sure that makes a difference but it's a hell of a lot better than the bleach aroma) and finally add a bit of black ink. It's going to take a while to dry out so make well change again over the next few days.

Sep 21, 2022, 4:14 

'accession' – generative artwork, I've printed out two versions to get a better idea of the look and to live with them for a while. The one on the right has a lot more displacement going on with the blocks, but I do like the subtle, not-quite-perfect look of the one on the left too. Any preference?

Sep 14, 2022, 10:57 

I think the bleach may have been a step too far…

Sep 11, 2022, 10:29 

So, 10 days in and this is the pathetic outcome of the Polaroid soaking experiment. Nothing much has happened apart from the appearance of a few minuscule white dots on some of the images. I've made up a bleach solution now to try and speed up the process a bit, the studio smells a bit like the footbaths at the swimming pool (do they still have those?) but I'm hoping for some real results.

Sep 9, 2022, 6:24 

These are four Polaroids that, annoyingly, came out much better than they were supposed to. They're soaking in water, and have been for a week now but nothing's happened except the water has gone a lot murkier. I'm back in the studio tomorrow and am hoping that they will have deteriorated even just a little bit. Maybe we just have the wrong type of water around here?

I’m very excited to announce that I have a three page feature article all about my artwork and my practice in the August edition of Midlands Living magazine!
And to top it all I'm alongside none other than Tom Jones on the contents page!! My career has topped out.

Thank you Sharon Martin @sassy_editor for making it happen.

I spent a few hours adding bio and images to my profile page on the @worcestershireopenstudios new website this morning which is kind of ironic as it was probably the first page on there from when we started testing the site several weeks ago. Definitely not the last though – artists if you haven't done it yet we went officially live today!

A couple of days away from the studio isn’t unusual but this week has been a bit all over the place with the bank holidays making it feel like a Sunday for several days in a row. So this morning I couldn’t remember why I’d left out two marked up pieces of leftover stripey material at approx 6in square when I don’t have any mounts with apertures that size. It was puzzling me for ages until eventually I recalled thinking I might try some ink drawings mounted onto beveled edge plywood blocks. So I spent the morning adding the black and white ink marks, preparing the blocks, and then sticking on the finished drawings. They were weighted down over lunch before cutting to size afterwards. And here we have them. They just need a bit of varnish to finish off but otherwise a productive day’s work, although not what I was planning to do today obviously.

Circular stripey is finished, apart from a bit of varnish. I know it's a bit of a departure but I'm thinking this actually looks better horizontal. Any opinions?

Catching up on the backlog of printing pieces from my 'Headlines' project. Plus the large piece is one of my #30works30days efforts which is expanding on the code I wrote for Headlines; instead of the news the pieces are driven from the first paragraph of Orwell's 1984, although there could be some parallels there…

This pair of ink drawings caught the eye of a visitor looking for a birthday present for a friend whilst they were propped up on my work in progress wall. I’d always intended to present these in a double mount so a quick trip to the framer and they’re now ready to go off to their new home.

It’s been a few weeks since I spent any time on the ink drawings but had a few hours working on some new ones today. Four of the backgrounds on this set are oil pastel – a new medium for me – the ink was sitting more on the surface as a result, rather than being absorbed into the paper. This gives it a different look which I’m not unhappy with.

spent most of the day printing and wrapping some old favourites for the browser. Prints and editions on A3 archival paper are £40.

Reconstructed Nature II and IIa prints (aka the pre-Pollock and the post-Pollock) newly framed and on the wall following some sales at the weekend 🙂

These are prototype prints for a new project I’ve been working on for a few weeks now. The newspaper headlines for each day are interpreted as coloured blocks using a computer program that I’ve written. The headlines are taken from the print editions of the UK newspaper front pages as they are published each day. The overall colour for each day is randomly generated, however each coloured block, which represents a single letter or number within the headline, remains the same throughout the whole piece. The narrow band at the bottom of each work is an index or key for the alphanumeric characters. Punctuation and spaces are displayed in white.

Each work is printed and dated, as a single edition on non-archival paper, meaning that the prints will naturally fade, over time. Something along the lines of yesterday’s news is today’s fish and chip paper…

I'll be posting the daily images over on my @richardnicholls.uk.projects account and will be printing and mounting each one with the view of exhibiting them en masse in the studio at some point, when I have a few more…

1 face done, so that's 4 letters down, 92 to go. Think my penwork needs smoothing out on the curves a bit more.

I find it useful when building up a series of work to be able to see the group as a whole and how pieces work together. I have about a dozen of my ink drawings that I’m happy with so far, these are some of the older works at one end of the contemplation wall.

I sold my piece ‘astir’ to a collector at the weekend so in place of the single work on my studio wall I now have six smaller pieces. Clockwise from top left: ‘dream‘, ‘cascade‘, ‘#loveliestblue‘, ‘solstice‘, ‘mauveine‘ and ‘dappled‘.

blocks day2 – 'do you know what it is yet?' in best Australian accent but probably not entirely appropriate any longer…

starting to prototype a new project concept – just in cardboard at this stage…

I’ve spent the past few days putting together materials, and shooting example images for my forthcoming series of workshops. At this stage it’s difficult to know what to include (well, actually, what to leave out) and how much detail to go into. I have a ‘dress rehearsal’ run through with a couple of friends at the end of the week which will help enormously. This is an example of a double exposure taken in-camera and untouched by post-processing. Sign up to learn how to take images like this with your iPhone!

I haven't been onto Pitchcroft with the dog for a while on account of her agoraphobia but insisted this morning, and now she's in a sulk with me.

getting there… this looks higher than it actually is, no ladders involved, just long arms and the estate agent setting on the camera lens

Moving day – it does look impressive from this angle, but you should see the pile of crap behind me…
