New day.

In high spirits.

Reading this quotation 

I am filled with hope.

My ‘old nonsense’ has been removed 

from the workshop and two new 

clean canvases are on my table.  

Tomorrow I shall open the door 

to begin a new painting day. 

‘Uncharted territory’

Oils and cold wax medium 

on 20 x 20 inch canvas

2016 (Sold)

My work is always uncharted territory.

I like it that way so I am not trapped

into following a definite plan.

There is a sense of the unexpected each time I paint.

A feeling of being unbounded.

‘Boundless’

Oils on 20 x 20 inch canvas  

2013 (private collection)

‘Little blue pot’

Oils on 12 x 12 inch box canvas 

2013 (private collection)

These two pictures evolved as I worked.

I began with an under-painting of 

loosely applied transparent oils.

When dry I overpainted leaving 

fragments of under painting visible.

Abstract shapes emerged and I worked

until the picture felt balanced.

I kept these as a reminder of my painting story.

‘Carried away by a moonlight shadow’

Oils and cold wax medium on 

10 x 12 inch panel and frame.

A recently reworked picture.

Just marks and scratchings.

Worn but carefree.

That’s all for now...

Until next time,

thank you for visiting.
