'In earlier
years my paintings were more traditional, however over the last 3 years I have
been exploring various styles and techniques.
The latest
work that I have produced and feel comfortable with is my “Blue Nude” series
which was inspired by the paper cut outs that Matisse produced in the last few
years of his life when he was wheelchair bound and no longer able to paint.
This exhibition
presents the full range of my art explorations and also includes some works
which are in private collections.'
I have used the following abbreviations to describe the materials used to create the paintings:
[ACR] Acrylic paints
[BLSF] Belgium Linen on Stretcher Frame
[BLSF] Belgium Linen on Stretcher Frame
[CSF] Canvas on Stretcher Frame
[CWP] Craft Wood Panel on Support Edge Frame
[MM] Produced with acrylic paints, modelling compounds and earth materials
[AAP] Use of appliques
PAINTING SIZES
Generally, all materials produced for the art market are supplied using the Imperial System, therefore all paintings exhibited are displayed in sizes of feet and inches.

COLOUR
In most cases, the colour and tonal values will obviously look much better when viewed in reality, as opposed to the digital copies of the art works.
VIEWING A PAINTING
If you are interested in viewing a painting/paintings or discussing a commission, I am more than happy to arrange a mutually satisfactory time to meet with no obligation to purchase.
