News - June 2009

 

This month has seen me trying to get a leak repaired in the wall of my home, but to no avail. I feel a bit like Noah... the floods are coming, I have animals everywhere and instead of floating, water is just pouring in. 

 

Sometimes it is good practice to work on lots of different paintings at once, particularly with oils.  As one painting dries, you can work on the next.  I have my new work started and am trying hard to get it all finished in time for my Shipley exhibition.  I hope you can join me there.  I will not be on site all of the time, but if need be, arrangements can be made for me to be there. 

 

New works include: Wildlife portraits of Cheetah, male Lion, Tiger, Impala, environment paintings and some modern acrylic works.

 

The portrait of the Barred Owl and the Merlin Falcon is reserved for approval and hopefully entry to the NEWA 2009 exhibition.

 

March... Gulf Fritillary -  Still in the middle of this one... Sorry Bob, it is a bit tricky!

 

February...

I have also been in touch with fab photographer Bob Jensen and I am now in the middle of painting one of his photographs of a lovely Gulf Fritillary butterfly.  He has the most beautiful photographs of flower mantis, and one of my favorites - a fantastic green spider!  Though work is very slow on this painting, I hope that it will show the beauty of the butterflys beautiful wings.
