All of what I post here has been digitally manipulated (hence “Manips”) to some degree or other.
First attempt at manip of a big painting. (Original is 210x156cm) I couldn’t hang it on the wall (don’t ask) so had to photo it in sections on the floor. Need to redo it to get the whole painting in – it’s clipped a little on the downside edge. Though I don’t know which way to put it? Take your pick.
Some new pieces. (This is where pieces get dumped)(See above)

No.1 is a (badly lit) photo of the piece I painted (Ink and acrylic on paper 102x152cm). No.2 is that image through runwayml Picasso filter (yeah, I’d never heard of him either). No. 3 is 2 brought through a photoshop filter and No.4 is that brought back through the Picasso filter. (I have no idea who is ripping off who here :-))
These are the 4 maips/gifs that I want to create onto a single gif file – I’ve just posted them (in a gallery) here to give an idea of what they might look like when placed together – as you are maybe experiencing, the lag on the gif movement is severely restricted – or maybe it’s just my broadband that can’t cope.
2 manips of the same painted sequence. Each singular image is ink on paper A3, scanned and background white removed , and then the 10 images stitched together into one piece. (Not sure of the yellow background – too dramatic). Ideally, I would love to see this image blown up and printed with white background double actual IRL size, on high gloss paper. In the yellow version, also played with the position of the negative space – before and after sequence)
Same images from the above stitched pieces but here each image has been modified using a “Picasso” filter on runwayml.com
Originally, inks and pastels on A1 and cleaned up in PS. Will separate the blue backgrounds from behind the yellow stripes (which I call “yellow gashes” in the saved file), and animate in a simple way.
Ink drawing scanned and then loaded up to photomosh.com – a manipulation generator.I have quite a few of the ink drawings like the one above. The idea was to put the different drawings through the generator using the same parameters, download the gif files and then stitch them together into one piece. The above piece is my first attempt – as you can see, the movement doesn’t ….. well, it doesn’t move. And for some reason the images have become elongated. To be able to place 4 different gifs into one piece, I had to jump through a few application hoops – so this is not the finished deal.
3 pieces on A3 paper – ink and acrylic. I scanned them, and took out the white background, then stitched them together .
Felt tip pen – 7 different sketches on A4 – scanned, background white replaced with web white and stitched together.
Felt tip pen and pencil – doodles on A5 photo paper, scanned, white replaced with web white and stitched together.

Some new gifs. (This is where gifs gets dumped)(That doesn’t mean they’re rubbish)(Or maybe it does).
“Godot” – as in “waiting for”. Inks on paper originally but cleaned up in PS and montaged.
Photo taken during the summer – I was living in a small house on the outskirts of KBH with a garden. Threw the pic into PS and played with the filters – something I haven’t done in quite a while. The montage I named somewhat ironically “JesusWillSaveADyingPlanet” – (maybe I should start drinking again?)
