Water Paper Ink
How to share the experience of living on an island for the last eighteen months? Water Paper Ink is an attempt to capture an impression of that time.
Last year was immeasurably improved by the considered mentoring of photographer and film maker Sarah Mason. She gave me the confidence to switch the camera dial from ‘auto’ to ‘manual’. It’s been a pleasure (and a challenge) to learn and develop.
Her Life in Motion film making course was the ideal way to make more films with support and guidance.
The topic for the final film was The Feeling of Home. Here is Water Paper Ink:
I’m tremendously grateful to Sarah and Suzi, and the class of Summer ’21, for the weekly zooms and grand finale film premiere….
…and anticipate many more hours venturing out with a camera, tussling with Premiere Pro and occasionally sighing with satisfaction….before heading to the beach.
The next Life in Motion class begins on 11th October – register your interest here.
What a peaceful lovely short film. Thank you for sharing!
Would love to linger longer over these gorgeous images.
What a beautiful film. The music was perfect and the shifts from scenery to book were enticing. I especially liked the water moving into wet ink on the page. Iwould love to see more of the book. What is the front cover like?
This video short was so lovely and captures so much of why I connect to your art- the beauty of paper, ink, and the slow noticing of nature. I’m so glad it helped you through as well. My walks in the woods and resulting art were immeasurably helpful. Beautiful video!
Stunning and beautiful and poignant and heart moving.. watched over and over..
A boundless talent you are..
That’s a sweet wee film!
Lovely. Thank you for sharing.
