The day we pretended to be Uwe Wittwer!

After a visit to the Abbot Hall Gallery exhibition of work by Uwe Wittwer the groups was feeling inspired and keen to recreate his method of working. This time we brought a laptop and projector so we could. Uwe uses the projector to select bits of photo or art work to work from creating a unique almost negative reinterpretation of artworks and images.

We had put together a selection of quirky images to project and group members use these by projecting them onto paper and painting. Some combined two or more images to good effect capturing the spirit of the style of working. We used acrylic, thick and very watery depending.
