In front of what will become my after-image made after Claude’s, I photograph my canvas: this is to keep the look of each stage of the work and to be able to use the series of photographs for my research. I am also aware that in taking a step back to distance myself from the activity of painting the after-image, I become a viewer of it – in the same way as Claude when he made his drawings for LV. I also archive these stages on my website, where for me they become memories of lost stages of the after-image (or lost paintings). In fact every phase of the drawing and painting is a witnessing of the process of seeing. I cannot work from one corner to the next – it is not in my instinct to work like that – rather, my method is to draw and paint the place my gaze finds. When I find a kind of pleasure in Claude’s Landscape with Rebekah, I will always go back to that point in the grid to look again. When looking, I have no place or point of view that is ideal, as I always shift places according to where it is the most pleasurable. I shoot partial rapid glimpses on to the subject of my attention and then back to my canvas, always following my hand movement to mimic the line I thought I had seen. It is the experience of what was ‘seen’ and then what could be drawn that I attempt to translate. My drawing and what I see cannot be perfect in relation to my after-images; they are always slightly out of place. I have to continuously calibrate and move lines to come closer to what has been seen inside the frames of the individual squares, within my grid.
My way of writing in my diary in relation to Landscape of Rebekah focuses upon both the distances within the painting and my physical closeness or distance to the original painting. When I take on the routine as the copyist, my physical relation to my painting, and therefore to the original, and thereby my identification with the gaze, is closer than when I am researching and writing through my study of art history and theory. In the latter instance, I am in the archives of museums or in my studio writing on my computer. It does not mean that the immediacy of copying/painting is somehow closer than my act of recollection of the work as I write; neither is more nor less true than the other.
