Hi I'm Jen, welcome to my blog. I'm a 2nd year student currently studying for a BA with Hons degree in Fine Arts at the London Metropolitan University in Whitechapel. This is my journey into colour, the hows, whys and whos that influenced my decision and what I have learnt and continue to learn along the way.

Sigmar Polke
Sigmar Polke, the translation at the bottom is; "Higher forces demanded:paint the upper right corner in black!"
'Journey'
As I am exploring colours I decided to do an interpretation of Ludovico Einauld's 'Nuvole Bianche'. Using colours that symbolise certain emotions, I depicted a spiritual journey I took and a philosophy that I live by now; 'Whenever you're in a dark place, look for the light and follow it. It might at times become very dim, this is because when you are faced with problems that need to be resolved. Afterwards the light becomes bright again and the emotions become clearer to understand, which gives you strength and hope to keep going till you reach the end and come out into the sunshine.

Classical Music
These are two of many pieces of classical music that I love to listen to whilst painting.
This first one is by Frederick Delius and it's called Koanga 'La Calinda'
This next piece is by an amazing pianist. Ludovico Einauld plays 'Nuvole Bianche' which is the theme tune to England '86
