SUMMARY:: Castle Park Arts Centre: Everything Not Forbidden is Compulsory
DESCRIPTION:Castle Park Arts Centre\, Frodsham WA6 6SE\n\nEverything Not Fo
 rbidden is Compulsory\n\nHoward Gardener is a Chester based artist who use
 s technical pens to create elaborate monochrome ink drawings. These are th
 en coloured with acrylic washes\, a technique that sprang from an interest
  in hand-tinted photographs. He also works in ceramics\, stained glass and
  other three-dimensional forms.\n\nHe has previously exhibited in Liverpoo
 l\, London\, Newcastle and Manchester. Howard’s last solo exhibition at 
 Frodsham’s Castle Park was in 2015 and in 2017 he was the overall winner
  of their Open Exhibition with his sculpture 'Asthma'.\n\n“Rather than p
 ursue the more traditional forms of landscape\, portraiture and still life
 \, I have always preferred the more uncertain ground of my imagination: th
 ings that have never occurred and never will. That said\, most of my drawi
 ngs do have their roots in portraiture. To me\, nothing is quite so intere
 sting as people and their motives – my own included – which make thing
 s happen.\n\nIn 2016\, I published Small Lives\, a book of forty portraits
  with ‘talking head’ texts\, based on the observation of real or imagi
 ned people over a period of about two years. I could often complete one of
  these portraits in a day\, allowing me to fit them in among my larger dra
 wings\, which can often take me up to a couple of months to finish.”\n\n
 As well as some of these large and more recent drawings\, this latest show
  will include illustrations from two books: 'More Small Lives' (a follow-u
 p to the original 'Small Lives') and 'Witch’s Hat'\, a novel.\n\nhttps:/
