This morning:  Images from our allotment and snapshots from the studio.

The plot has transformed since my posting of photos in February.
I could not think of a better metaphor for what has been happening since I started the reside residency.
The journey within 'my room' has been absolutely amazing.
Although I have not shared much of this here, I can honestly say that the very virtual presence of the reside residency alone has shaped and supported all of my moves between people, painting, twitterland, home, teaching, Ipswich, Manchester and London.

The existence of reside space enables me to connect to things and people within 'my room' in a certain kind of way.
It beautifully assists an internal process, negotiates a space and position in 'my room' which seems to have let things grow naturally.

A few weeks ago I carefully looked at the reside blogs by Karl, Corinna, Susan, Anthony, Michaela and Bridget
. I can't believe mine is soon coming to an end. Not quite yet, there are one or two things I am hoping to include in  'my room' before I leave!

This large drawing/collage I unrolled and put up this week in my studio to see what  I made 13 years ago whilst liveing on the island of Ruegen in Germany.
Pondering over how it relates to my current work.

    CLAUDIA BÖSE,  a painter based in Ipswich, Suffolk.
     
    I construct my paintings through process, led by daily life, history and nature. I hope my ongoing engagement with light, colour and forms creates a new perception.

    I am inspired and guided by the painterly process and its relation to abstraction; the way I handle paint invites an audience to consider my work without prejudice.
    Decisions about when and how I use paint are also strongly guided by my empathy for work which has been created by other women painters.


    I am drawn to regions which could be described as, geographical and psychological borderlands, especially those which have been interpreted throughout history by artists and writers.

    Recently I began working in a new studio based high in the church tower of a modernist church in Ipswich; this is also adjacent to our allotment.
    The very unusual perspective in tandem with attending to plants has already provided a different grounding and enrichment for my work.
