Government & Opposition - Lines to take Painting

In the Civil Service of the United Kingdom there is a task for civil servants to prepare policy 'lines to take' for Ministers and, when there is a General Election, for Shadow Ministers. The latter could end up being in charge in not too much time. Advances in the study of economics mean that sometimes there is little difference in policies particularly when the policies are viewed from the perspective of the media and voters. Then again all too often people think there is a huge difference and there isn't much difference at all. This work is intended to prompt thinking about what is the difference between government and opposition policies. My current preferred medium is to paint digitally using the iPad and then print the work either on high quality art paper or on quality canvas. I find the simple line drawing is capable of expressing many different things to the viewer. I apply mathematical rigour and also randomness. There is even humour in the choice and representation of colours and the shape, length and positioning of lines.
