A circus to behold

No. Ten was the full swing into exploring this new paradigm.
I executed it with such exuberance,
it really just happened.
After the initial layout was done I then proceeded intuitively,
​being guided by the painting;
wanting it to be visually fun,
​an explosion of colour.
Julian Dix

I want to see sideways

The oblique photographs of 8 & 9
are directly responsible for the composition of No.Eleven.
It was the photos that enabled me to see sideways.
Seeing the exaggerated distortion in 2 dimensions
inspired the leap from the flat plane 
to the jostled skew.

Marching jars

More animated, filled with movement;
hovering, dancing, marching across the canvas
then suddenly halted by this border where the suspended lands into a solid plane. 

No. Twelve inadvertently harkens to my childhood, those 1970's styles:
'bellbottoms and avacado bathroom suites'
that groovy mixing of colours and shapes.

A different drum

What happens next is a diversion that
somehow still belongs within this field of jumbled jars...
​but is a step in a different direction.
Julian Dix - 'Jerusalem'
No. Thirteen
A stylistic departure that took me by surprise...
