  • A blue sky over a Golden Wheatfield

    A blue sky over a Golden Wheatfield

    Feeling a huge solidarity with and admiration for the brave people of the independent European Country of Ukraine today. Their flag is based on a golden yellow wheat field under a blue sky. All of my proceeds from the sale of this painting will be donated to Ukraine humanitarian aid.

    Stormy Weather

    Stormy Weather

    The recent stormy weather seems to have presented some particularly spectacular skies, sunsets and seascapes... so this has proven to be my main painting obsession at the moment. It is as if nature is fighting back and showing us who is the real boss.

    Iconic Hampshire Landscape

    Iconic Hampshire Landscape

    Back to some iconic South Downs, Hampshire Landscape. My latest painting depicts the view from the approach to Old Winchester Hill across the Solent to the Isle of Wight. Unusually there are no pylons or unsightly industrial development in this view which will have been very similar for centuries.

    Arcus

    Arcus

    Arcus..... Latin for rainbow...My latest pair of paintings are inspired by rainbow trout. The range of skin colour and markings is a wonder of nature and inspire some fantastic shimmering abstract images!

    Golden Skies

    Golden Skies

    There have been some particularly dramatic sun sets in Hampshire these past few weeks which have been such powerful inspiration for paintings. I think that I am probably addicted to sunsets. With the depressing decline in the political state of the UK currently it seems as if nature is trying even harder to lift the spirits!

    There have been grey skies in the UK over the past few days so I have been craving a bit of colour therapy!

    Impatient for Spring

    Impatient for Spring

    Generally I tend to follow the seasons with my landscape inspired paintings but I am getting impatient for Spring now! I am still enjoying using my latest purchase of Windsor and Newton professional iridescent paints.

    Nebula VI

    Nebula VI

    Nebulae are a great distraction from the shameful, selfish state of politics in the United Kingdom currently. This mess too will pass..... and Nebulae will of course remain.

    Freshwater Bay in Winter III

    Freshwater Bay in Winter III

    Great subject and particularly in Winter when the Atlantic waves crash in. .....Spending some time immersed in this special place at the moment. Can you hear the sea? The nature of the rounded rocks and the shape of the bay creates a unique sound.
