The Story behind the brushstrokes.
I thought is was time to show some of my smaller paintings on paper.
They are probably my most abstract in style with vibrant colours and always with a very spontaneous feel.
I love using larger brushes when painting these and when I say larger brushes they are in fact painting and decorating round brushes from a hardware store, not artist brushes at all. Its fun using these and they don’t have to be proper artist brushes in order to be creative and have fun. Of course I do use smaller proper brushes for detail and finesse.
Try it, get a palette full of different colours, some paper ideally with texture and then both types of brushes and some water, put on your favourite music and let yourself go. Before you know it you have created something unique and original and time has just passed and relieved your stress. Just lose yourself !!
These pieces have an energy and flow that allows me to relax as they are smaller and quicker to do than a canvas that can takes days and weeks. They have a fluidity and expressive style and each has their unique colour palette. They come with a mount so they are a perfect size to be custom framed and placed around your home or you could give them as that perfect gift.
‘Stormy Sunset’ 19.5 × 19.5 cms
The brushstrokes and texture in ‘Stormy Sunset’ create movement in this painting with a vibrancy finished by the red colour variation on the horizon.
I particularly love how all the colours on ‘Stormy Sunset’ work together, oranges, purples and creams. All the large brushstrokes and touches of colour in the sky and the detail on the horizon are blended just a little, but not too much to lose the spontaneity. Handmade paper is so absorbent so you have to work quickly but it gives these paintings a lovely texture. A frame then beautifully pulls everything together.
‘Twilight Tango’ 22 x 18.5 cm
Has beautiful blue and purple tones in the sky using the smaller artist brushes for finer brushstrokes creating a white focus point with the bold flick of paint.
Price: £160.00 (including a mount)
‘Windswept Summer’ - 22 x 19 cm
I love the colours in ‘Windswept Summer’ with the orange and purple tones and touches of yellow and green on the horizon in the sweeping light.
Price: £160.00 (including a mount)
‘Melting Dusk’ - 20.5 x 18.5 cm
Has a lot of depth and touches of light and dark pink and the ochre bold stroke of paint gives the impression of dusk and the last glimmer of daylight.
