Output for June.........................

It's been ages since I posted anything but I haven't been very productive so far in 2014.  Here are some recent paintings.....

Last two commissions for 2013.

I'm having an equine phase!  I painted these some time ago but I've only just got around to varnishing them ready for framing.  Hope you enjoy.

Max with his catch

This one is fresh from my easel and it's the first one that I feel has captured my dog Max.  He's a cheeky little chap and this was painted from a photo that I took of him while we were on holiday in North Wales.  He didn't really catch the fish............not alive anyway!  He's always inquisitive and when he saw this mortified fish he just had to pick it up!  Bless!

This is what has been on my easel this week.  It's a my version of a famous painting by Jean Honore Fragonard.  I just can't stay away from the masters! 

What I'm up to now.

Having gained some confidence in my abilities after studying Design and creativity with the Open University, I loosened up my style somewhat and decided to experiment more.  I threw caution to the wind and had a go at anything that inspired me.  Abstracts always used to frighten me, and I wouldn't even attempt to paint one, but now, still studying the masters like Kilmt for inspiration, I'm no longer afraid.  I will also experiment with mixed media, digital art and printing.

This is what I'm up to now..........................
