it’s all about the Severn

Welcome to my place by the Severn, the inspiration for my art, writing, producing and workshops. The river has flowed through my practice for many years and this site reflects that relationship. Please view the menu to find what you are looking for and get in touch via the contact page.

Using shadows constructively #monochrome #blackandwhitephotography #artistvideo #walking #autumn #gloucestershire One of the fold crease series. Love this one. Graphite putty. #landscape #geology #severn #surface A new owner has moved into the house where the jackdaws gather. I can’t imagine how they are finding the early morning cacophony. Not something you would ever see on a house marketing document. And never witnessed during estate agency opening hours. I no longer feel comfortable filming them on the roof. The previous owner knew me. I haven’t met the new people. So from now on no more roof shots from my bedroom window. Bye bye black birds Updating my website and merging Flow Contemporary Arts into carolynblackart.com Still keen to Produce projects for others and be a consultant on public art projects. Have space to do some new contracts now, as the 3 I have been involved with for 3 years are almost near completion! Will update on those projects soon. Amazing we can slow things down, if only we could do it with our bodies we could be better at catching The lovely dancing tree is having fun out there today! Guess where I was yesterday @kelarrowsmith more delicious coffee, cakes and art at @theoldpassagearlingham @walking.the.land In around ten minutes the jackdaws will gather #twitcher #birding #dawn #severn #cotswolds Finally found a way to get to the top of Barrow Hill. Significant to me and my work because it is the first hill on the Arlingham Peninsula that will hopefully still be visible in 2041. The solo oak tree is an important mark on the landscape and is visible from Rodley and Newnham. My research continues and writing grows. Every place I visit in the local area is part of the puzzle. How can we imagine future landscapes? #climatechange #futureflooding #flooding thanks for the good company @uschiarensprice what a lovely day with you, the Severn and CAKE!
