I wanted to use a new, different grid system for this mono-print, as I thought the artist's names would probably prove to be quite long, particularly as I intended to use an Illuminati style typeface.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMy next door neighbour was having an extension built. I was so impressed by the skill of his bricklayer, that I thought it might be interesting to use a wall as the basis of the structure for this print. I used the proportions of the common house brick as the formal devise for selecting elements from famous twelfth to twentieth centuary paintings, to create the image of a wall,  implying bricks and mortor. The comosition is comprised of four alphabets of painters names. The text of each individual name is printed on the section from one of their more recognisable pictures. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe title is diamond dusted over elements from paintings of three colour field artists', Barnett Newman, Clyfford Still and Mark Rothco.
