‘Man and the Moon’

This is another ‘Red Abstract painted in oils part of my experimental range using up colours which never seem to get used up or run out. The irony of this series of paintings is that I did use them all and ran out so had to buy more! See others in this series posted also in Abstract

'Shifting Scenes'

Shifting Scenes in My ”Forgotten Dreams of Crimson”

This play around doodle was done whilst scribbling in another of those ‘bored moments’ of “I don’t know what I want to do today?!” Rather than use black and white, as I have done in some of my other abstracts in this section. I wanted to see how I would feel about one in colour? To be honest, I still don’t know, I think I prefer the black and whites. Though I do like looking around the whole image and still finding things I don’t remember drawing. When I do one of these abstracts it is never planned and I restrict myself from holding the picture at arms length until I’ve finished. That way I think I get to explore it as much as others would on first seeing it. Whilst the picture is just made up of random shapes shaded, it is a voyage of discovery in finding little figure type people within the shapes. Simply, by the right hand bottom corner, having a little perspective, it made me think about the theatre and moving background scenes. Hence, the thoughts before the title!

'One Goes Off The rails'

‘One Goes Off The rails’

This oil painting was part of my experimental range of Red Abstracts. I think I was in a period of feeling everything was getting to me – So I let it out onto canvas. Reds and oranges help to give a symbolic feeling of intense heat and rage. The subject, whilst still having some degree of heart left, bares the brunt of sharp tongues and persistent invasiveness. The title conveys the feeling of where ‘One’ might be heading!

The Philosopher and The Scribe

The Philosopher and The Scribe

Somehow, or just because, I decided one day to use up the colour pallet I rarely deal with when doing landscapes or portraits. Liking better to utilise than leave to waste, I thought the best way to make the colours useful being in the form of abstract art. To which point I became more and more fascinated with the series as they emerged onto the canvas in front of me. The irony of this is that as I got into the moment I ran out of the colours I was using and had to go buy more!

Letting my Brain and paintbrush work together leads to all kinds of results. Here is the finished creation. Even though I painted it, I still find things which intrigue me on the canvas!

"On a Ledge Series" - 'Cactus and Friend'

“On a Ledge Series” – ‘Cactus and Friend’

Bored and uninspired one day, I stood in my kitchen wondering what I could draw? Whilst wondering I absent mindedly started tidying and rearranging things on the ledge. I’m not one for nice pot ornaments, rather have slightly wacky or weird decorative things around! So, as I now had a disarrayed pile of things I had moved and a clean window ledge – The idea struck me. I could use it as a little staging area for a series of still life pictures!!!

The idea for “On a Ledge Series” was born.  Above is one – ‘Cactus and Friend’. A still life done in  colourful pastel.
