Jersey City. May 2020.

C R U S H I N G I have had a great day spent crushing pigment I collected from East Meon on Monday. So many wonderful shades here. I'm excited to see what they look like as watercolour! Some rocks were pretty tough customers. At one point I was welding a hammer forcefully into the ground outside the studio. I'm pretty sure people passing thought I was utterly bonkers. Especially when they actually asked "what are you doing?" Only for me to reply "smashing rocks 🤷🏻‍♀️" whilst I continue to hit the rock sandwiched between two sheets of paper and a magazine. It was quite therapeutic really. Thankfully the rest of the day was less manic and I gently crushed the broken down rocks in my favourite mortar and pestle whilst listening to a book on audible. Tomorrow is make paint day 🤗👏🤩 #londonartist #londonpigment #isolationart #isolationwalks #suunto #trackingmyjourney #newartwork #freshideas #spacetoreflect #handmadewatercolour #london #eastmeon #naturalpigment #therapy #artcan #artcanhour #bloomandwild #artcollector (at East Meon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsruQLnSOn/?igshid=ke5zhghu6ny2

B E G I N N I N G S . Today was supposed to be the first of two days of the Crouch End Open Studios. I was so looking forward to my second year as part of this event. Last year was an absolute blast. I loved having the opportunity to showcase my work and speak to so many new people about it. I'm sad it's not happening this weekend. This piece would have been part of the show. Send me a DM if you'd like to have a virtual chat about it! . It's a brand new piece as part of my Isolation Walks series. It's called "...And So It Begins" It is based on my very first isolation walk when lockdown started. If you look closely you can see three different parts of this journey. The paint was made from a pigment collected on my isolation walks. .

R E F L E C T I O N . Using one of my new london pigment watercolours and the route of my first isolation walk in lockdown, I've started a new piece of work. A bit of time away from painting recently has given me the space to consider new and meaningful paintings. I'm excited to continue with this one. . #londonartist #londonpigment #isolationart #isolationwalks #suunto #trackingmyjourney #newartwork #freshideas #spacetoreflect #handmadewatercolour #dots #dotty #london #artist #lisamarieprice (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_760vJHMtI/?igshid=znf427gvcyr6

J O U R N E Y . We've all been put on a bit of an unknown journey recently. My way of taking back some control of the situation is to record my journeys during this time. . There was quite a lot of art club prep to do today as I've been recording for my first tutorial in my @theworkshopathome kids art club. I only managed one small painting for the next walk in the series. Tomorrow I should get another one done. . Stay tuned for updates. If you've got kids that enjoy art and want to join my Instagram Art Club check out the link in my bio for more details. There's already lots of great arty ideas on there! . #isolationart #isolationwalks #londonpigment #londonwatercolour #naturalpigment #naturalwatercolour #londonartist #artcollector #artclub #kidsartclub #arttutorials #artathome (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-e-H0XHTIH/?igshid=1c0r9sgarqtxm

I S O L A T I O N . I was on one of my isolation walks last week and had a little idea to record all the walks during this time. I normally record my walks out in the countryside while I'm foraging in a tracking app and then use the walks to create my own maps. . I have found that recording the walks and creating art from them gives me back some control in this strange time and also helps me to find the positives right now. . The watercolour is made from London pigment found on my walks and the map details the journey itself. These three paintings are the start of a much bigger body of work to come. I'm excited to show you the progress. . What are you doing during all this to keep you upbeat? . #isolationwalks #isolationart #staypositive #foragingforcolour #mtartagency #londonartist #naturalpigments #artcollector #newartwork #bodyofwork #isolation #coronavirusart #covid19 (at North London) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-aR4jvHK8G/?igshid=1hjb1pcd03bm6
