Ceramics & Painting

I have been paining and exhibiting for over twenty years, choosing to paint these days exclusively in oils when previously I would use mixed media.

It is a much slower form of painting, but the longer workability of the paints gives me a more time to work on the composition and flow of the painting. 

I predominantly paint landscapes, seascapes and nature , the seascapes are usually a more muted palette leading to a more organic flow without trying to be completely realistic, rather catching the mood and feel of the ebb and flow of the sea and weather.

​

Each painting will take at leat six months due to the medium, therefore I will be working on several pieces at as time as I can work on a couple as the others are drying. This works for me as I can study the painting as it drys for the next phase giving me a chance to decide where I want to take it.
