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.

This new painting, ‘Sunset Melody’ is part of my latest collection in a series of beautiful, evocative sunsets painted in my semi-abstract style capturing the fleeting and poetic mood of 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………?

I painted this after waking very early one morning and watching how quietly the dawn evolved, each subtle shift in colour in the air interpreted in the brushstrokes and the quiet and cool light evolving the palette resulting in a rhythm in the painting.

In this painting there are broader sweeps of colour and looser brushstrokes, so it is a much more abstract piece compared with many of my more recent works, conveying a more free and expressive mood, and allowing forms to suggest rather than define the landscape.

Can you imagine it in your own interior space……..

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…….

Small paper paintings really relax me, especially between or after painting larger canvases. I enjoy the spontaneous use of colour, the freedom of the brushstrokes and experimentation and following unexpected twists and turns in textures. I often use oversized brushes even for the small scale of the size of the painting which creates a loose but really effective result.

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.

These three atmospheric paintings share a similar warm colour palette yet each remains wholly unique, carrying its own story, mood and distinct visual elements.

Which one do you find yourself drawn to the most………
