pearl clouds

this is a painting i made of a beach, somewhere in brighton i think. My grandfathers close friend Gordon took a photo of the scene that i worked from, the same man that i have previously done a portrait of.

an old walk

this is a painting of again dorset, an old walk that i used to take as a child with my family. In this painting i tried to capture a style that my grandad used to use as an artist, using bold, evocative colours rather than dull, even perhaps real, ones.

towards a sunset

This is quite a personal portrait of mine, and is my first practice in oils which i am now very fond of (compared to acrylics i prefer the consistancy, and general feel- however they are quite messy). The figure is my grandad, walking towards his sunset.
