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”.
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.
Three quite different paintings but all painted with the same landscape in mind.
These three small original abstract landscape paintings ‘Windswept Evening’, ‘Mistral Sunrise’ and ‘Evening Rain’ are inspired by the North Downs in Surrey. Each shows the landscape at different times of the day in my unique abstract style, with bold brushstrokes, soft light effects, and rich textures to create a vivid and emotional view of the scenery.
See this painting in an interior setting and imagine it in your own space……..
My new painting: Daybreak on the Downs
This beautiful fresh painting of a morning daybreak over the Downs has a fluidity of movement capturing that early morning light breaking through the clouds and reflecting on the endless landscape below.
