MARK MAKING

‘Mark making’ describes the process of creating lines, patterns and textures. Vincent van Gogh used expressive mark making in many drawings & paintings to descibe his subjects. Idris Khan’s digital images are created using multiple layers of lines & are inspired by sources such as music & text. Jim Robinson makes tectured sculptural ceramics with impressed linear patterns, & Jeanette Appleton uses felt, stitch & embroidery to create lines, patterns & textures in her richly embellished panels
