There are oodles of roadworks around at the minute – many re-patching the shattered pot-holes whose fillings crumble every winter…. The sign SURFACE DRESSING propped up on a local pavement made me smile and think of my own work – I couldn’t help doodling on the photo. Put at its simplest, my job is concerned with making decorative surfaces. In the last thirty days or so I’ve covered a lot of ground in matters of the how, what, where and why of applied pattern.
