CloseupI liked how Barraclough has created these sketches by combining a variety of depths and shapes of marks to create a complete piece. This concept has always intrigued me as I am fascinated by the possibilities of seeing a smaller image within a piece.

I like how delicate these drawings are and how they have been brought together as a series by the shape of the canvases. I am also taken by the fact that this has been created with human hair, as I have tried to work with hair before and I realised how fragile and frustrating it can be to work with.
