New Work

My latest piece of work. I am so looking forward to returning to my caravan on the cliff top this piece is inspired by this. The excitement and enthusiasm for returning I hope is conveyed in the mixed media painting.

I long to see the sunrise the sunsets the birds the sea the cliff top. Just to stand and feel the sea breath the fresh air I can hardly wait.

I have included a few stages below.

Also I have include the pieces using an effects program on the computer they reveal like an X ray the pencil, crayon and brushes marks they also reveal the layers in the painting.

I think I may have some digital postcards made of these. Warhol like !

August Over

Most of August I normally spend out of the studio and researching on the coast. I have been collecting stones, found objects, taking photos, sketching etc. The aim is to return to the studio in September to work I am finding this difficult to do this year with weddings, anniversaries and my self doubt.

There has been some fantastic skies colours and textures in the sea. The sea seemed to be like a large lace fan opening out.

The shadow figures look great against the large prominent clouds which looked to me as if they could fall into the sea at any moment.

Perhaps putting some of my pics and sketches on the blog might help me kick start the process.
