‘Forever Poppies’

I think I went into poppy overload in this imaginary oil painting! I wanted to create a landscape of vivid, vibrancy. With a suggestion of an eternal swathe of flowers meandering gently into the distance, whilst the foreground offers some degree of texture to the flowers and intermingling grasses.

Realism in the Springtime Shadows –

This Still life Oil picture was painted purely for the shadow of the yellow pansy. The flower cast such a strong shadow against the sunlight hitting the terracotta pot, I wanted to capture it.

‘Busking in Bolton’

A few years ago I was Exhibiting my Art, along with other Artists, In a Street Art Exhibition, when I managed to capture this moment on camera.

The violinist is my Son, who came along to offer me support in the form of Busking. As I turned around from my stall, I noticed he was starting to draw a small crowd of appreciative listeners. I quickly took a photograph, capturing The Moment!

This Watercolour is the result of that Scene.

‘Poppies and Forget-me-nots’

This Watercolour picture of Poppies was done from my garden, where the Wild, Orange Poppies nestled happily within a carpet of fresh blue Forget-me-nots. The thin papery texture of the flowers allows to sunlight to almost pass through.

‘Mayday Festivities’ – Oxford University

Whilst my Daughter was studying at Worcester College she would tell me of the Fantastic atmosphere in Oxford when it was Mayday. There would be Artists, Musicians, Dancers and all kinds of Street activities. including dancing around a Maypole. Often the partying would go on through the night. She sent me some photographs. This Watercolour above is depicting one of the scenes!

After I had finished painting, I stood back and noticed I had omitted to put the young girl’s legs in the painting. With my paint brush hovering ready to paint them in, I Stopped. I realised it actually gave something more to the picture by the legs absence. Like an ethereal figure floating off to the sound of the musician’s music!!
