Artist of the Week, David De Roach

Sometimes we hold on tightly to what we know, being weighed down by our mighty intellect, denying any space for that releasing agent.  It can take numerous approaches to peel back the layers until we can reveal something of the state of our soul.  For David the pivotal moment came through a chance, sensory exercise, where everyone was required to close their eyes and trace the texture of their face with one hand, whilst drawing with the other.  His self portrait has a rich, raw quality that is captivating.
