Gavin Wood

We had a talk by a student of Edinburgh College of Art who previously done the BTEC Art and Design course (The same course as I am doing) He was talking about his work and what inspired him. His first work was inspired by horror films and the show of movement and suspense just before something happened. He then moved onto how we perceive colour and goes out and looks at something and describes in as much detail as he can in a little book on what colour he sees and then takes it back to his studio and paints it on a huge canvas. I enjoyed his talk and what he had to say but I found his art about colour very boring.
