Art I like - Charles Poulsen

While looking for images of early work (1980s) by Pauline Burbidge, I came across - among the random photos that a google search throws up - some lovely "japanese-feeling" images -

 

... and there are more at the gallery website. They are by Pauline's husband, Charles Poulsen, and were made in 2015-16. 

The pair have often exhibited together and will be doing so again in Edinburgh (from 4 November).

"Charles Poulsen was born in Kent in 1952. He completed a BA (Hons) Fine Art at Loughborough College of Art in 1983, and an MA Fine Art at Trent Polytechnic, Nottingham in 1986. ... Together in 1993 [Charles and Pauline] came to live and work in the Scottish Borders at Allanton near Duns. At Allanbank Mill Steading they have modified and adapted a group of buildings of differing sizes to serve as studios, exhibition spaces and living quarters. In the process, they have created a superb garden in which Poulsen’s sculpture practice – both studio works and ‘growing sculpture’ – finds expression."

I'm also very taken by his Winter Series, which you can see on his website - this is just one, others are here -
