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 a quick preview of some of my contemporary impressionist paintings being shown at my new exhibition in London.
Excited to be showing my new collection of impressionist paintings at the ‘Last Supper Gallery’ in Battersea, London from Thursday March 12th to at least the 4th April 2026.
Look forward to seeing you there………
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.

Some more small paintings on paper
The freedom of small paintings is wonderfully different from larger canvases which demand greater concentration, careful blending and much more time. These small studies are much more spontaneous, colourful and usually more abstract in brushstrokes and composition.
Continuing my abstract series of Spring paintings
I’m continuing my current early Spring series of paintings on canvas and paper which are inspired by the delicate, shifting light in the landscape at this coming time of the year.
I wonder which one is your favourite……….
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.
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.

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.
