New Drawings by Thomas Hamlyn - Spring/Summer 2018

In these recently completed drawings Hamlyn has been using a tablet to improvise gestural works that quite often deliver wholly unexpected results. One might consider them as modest Zen mediation's and to a large extent the 'accident' plays a role in their creation too. But Hamlyn's interest is not in 'rabbit spotting' or finding shapes in clouds but rather the moment when the works themselves have a fundamental integrity that needs no other support, 'idea' or device.
