Artist Statement
Hello and welcome.
Having been in Graphic Design for over 25 years, I took up painting in 2005 as an outlet from the tight restrictions of graphics.
I work mainly in acrylic, emulsion and textured effects, and all my works are on deep boxed canvas, 20" x 20" or 14" x 18" for the portraits, and all are painted around the edges.
My paintings try
and convey stillness and calm, and are inspired by nature.
The portraits of jazz musicians are inspired by a life-long love of jazz and
are stylised explorations using blocks of flat colour, representing the mood
of the music.
I am currently working on several pieces for possible exhibitions in the North West of England.
Thank you for looking
at my gallery.
