Blue background


A recent acrylic. Not at all what I had planned to do but I think it still worked out ok.

1989 inspiration

This painting is very different to my other watercolours and was inspired after a trip to St. Ives. I visted a gallery where the flower paintings were very big, bold, colourful and almost cartoonlike in simplicity. As soon as I got home I got an A4 sheet of water colour paper out and did this!

Sunflower


This painting was done for a dear friend whom I no longer get to see :-(
It was my first real go at acrylics and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. It developed over a couple of weeks dominating the lounge of the flat I was living in at the time. It pretty much dominated me at the time too?
