New art project idea

Previously art project has been about painterly gestures within the world. Spirituality in connection to painting and the natural environment... however want to expand ideas, start something new and exciting yet still in connection with former ideas. Decided to start to look at project of: Worlds within worlds: much different and interesting way of moving on ideas I reckon. Was previously looking at idea of mother nature and that there is a spiritual aspect to painting and the real world. Through this project I can start to expand this and show how the small details are worlds of their own. That everything especially the small overlooked things are full of beauty/energy/spirit/nature.

For example: ideas I want to explore...
  • Natural signs of 'worlds within a world': branches within a tree/forest, spills in the world eg. colours or stains, raindrops within a leaf, feathers of a bird, buildings within a reflection...(photography)
  • Artistically through material: within the random or the mistake-everything is natural and in a spiritual sense happens for a reason.Ideas to create paintings that have been made through shaking paint into containers where the paper is placed, so the outcome reflects the natural creation of the process. The paint could be watered down so that it has a fluid,natural feel. (mysteries within the abstract, beauty within the imperfections, look for any resemblance to aspects of landscaping or nature)
  • So ideas to try....photography ideas, shaken/colour abstraction ideas...all connecting to idea that everything is its own world (if that makes sense XD)
Photos so far:
