Studio View Blog: Latest Artworks, News and Inspiration.
This Blog ‘Studio View’ is a regular update of my new work, upcoming exhibitions, some work in progress images and photographs of what inspires me to paint.
My work is all about the ever changing light in the landscape.
“Atmosphere is the sensation directed upon the viewer, whereas mood is the actual feeling provided”.
Here’s a new impressionist landscape painting: Melancholy Sun
The series explores the changing light on the landscape at different times of day and across the seasons showing how light can vary so dramatically and celebrating the challenge of capturing its fleeting beauty
Here’s another small abstract painting: Sunburst Morning
This painting is a very spontaneous piece that I always gravitate toward when the artwork is smaller. I particularly love the bright yellow brushstrokes, the lively interplay of colour and light, and the rich texture that gives the surface a tactile, expressive depth.
Would this fit your space………..
Sunlit Breath the ideal painting for that small space.
My inspiration comes from nature but the interpretation is guided by my own feelings and a personal response to the mood, colour and sense of space in the light combined with my own emotional memories.
Could you find a place for this painting………..
My large impressionist canvas paintings
My large stretched canvas acrylic landscape paintings are primarily impressionist in style although I often introduce the occasional abstract touch to add texture, energy and shadows to the light.
This stunning impressionist painting showing the beauty of the evening light.
Just as the sun dipped below the horizon its orb merged into an orange glow lifting the red peachy clouds into the soft blues and greys in the sky, whilst the landscape melted into the shadows.
Could this painting be yours………?

Lingering Sundown is one of my more affordable beautiful abstract paintings.
I often find it helpful to place a smaller painting in an interior setting so I can better imagine how it will look at different dimensions and within a variety of room layouts, lighting conditions, and alongside different furniture and décor.
Each painting that I sell I will be donating 10% to the Alzheimer’s charity in loving memory of my Mum.
North Downs, always an inspiration to paint anytime of the year.
An original small abstract landscape painting "Dew on the Downs", an acrylic canvas with blended brushstrokes creating light and texture depicting the North Surrey Downs, an inspirational area with very special light in the rolling hills.

Three new semi-abstract landscapes have been added to my affordable art page. Painted on canvas, they use varied colour, tone and fluid movement to capture the light and atmosphere of the setting sun.
All so different. Which would be your favourite…….
Sunlight breaking through the clouds: Sunlit Lustre
Each of my paintings seems to develop its own final personality. Some reveal their radiance straight away whilst others require time, some quiet reflection and a fresh spark of inspiration before I know they are truly finished.
So it is sometimes a quick journey but more often a slow but satisfying one.
One of my favourite abstract landscape paintings: Cold Clouds
I often revisit older paintings for inspiration and I love this small abstract landscape for its expressive brushwork and the calm, peaceful mood the blended colours create providing and inviting some quiet reflection.
Three beautiful atmospheric landscape paintings
These three atmospheric paintings share a similar warm colour palette yet each remains wholly unique, carrying its own story, mood and distinct visual elements.
They’re all inspired by winter sunsets capturing the shifting light and mood with rich colour, layered texture and subtle atmospheric depth.
Take a look and see which one would be your favourite……..
New painting: Sunrise Ascent
This new painting was inspired by some of the recent winter sunrises we’ve been having when soft morning hues and the light ascends gently over the landscape, casting a calm, luminous glow across the fields and distant trees.
It’s a very calming painting and would suit any interior space………
A beautiful new sunset painting available for sale
You can see all the colour detail I’ve put into this painting on the horizon — from the bright orange glow through the delicate flecks of white to the softly blended red tones that rise gently into the sky, creating subtle shifts of light and atmosphere.
Paintings from the North Downs at different times of the year.
I love painting the North Downs because there’s always different light to capture through the changing seasons whether it’s in the sky with those gorgeous blue tones or in the subtle reflections in the foreground.
Everyday feels different, especially at certain times of year when the sun sits low or climbs high or struggles even to break through shifting clouds.
