These little character studies in paint on canvas are full of surprises. They are painted directly with little or not mixing on the pallet, the brush is allowed to express the artist's feeling and contour of the face. The result is simple, easy flowing and energetic portrait gems that show strong character and vibrant colour. A certain amount of what artist call happy accident is given the opportunity to reveal such joys of expresstion with paint I enjoy most of all. For this to happen, the artist must forget their years of academic training and allow their subconsence and skill which had been acquired to take over.

The little character studies are painted as quickly as possible to avoid the artist thought taking over and hesitating with the makes, but are corrected automatically as you paint with as few strokes as possible in order to keep the freshness and clarity of every brush mark.

This artwork is panted alla prima, no pencil or charcoal sketching is done, and thick paint is mixed on the canvas, avoiding any mixing on the palette. What this archives is a highly saturated and abstract expressions painting. Far more interesting in texture and colours juxtaposed take and give to the other colour laid next to it. It's truly exciting to paint which removes any stiffness and academic restrictions with every brush stroke made to count and express the contour of the face breathing live and accidental likeness which was not my priority.

The idea of butterfly portraits was made from 2004 but have been using the same technique for many years before in a number of portraits going back years before. The technique was to produce interesting and abstract backgrounds where only the parts of the figure i.e. the face and hands were painted in oils or acrylic in detail. These Expressionistic butterfly eyes were added recently December 2023 which just shows you artist will add or change artwork years later. I think they look far more interesting and morphia. The eyes force the viewer to see a face or animal features which are not there.

The eyes force the viewer to see a face or animal features which are not there. Of course, the idea of eyes is a protection mechanism. Motif for many butterfly wings-other for attractive colours to attract. The use of acrylic paints in order to use the wide variation of metallic and pearlescent colours which give the glistering prism look they have in movement.

With a lot of cooking, shows and celebrity food advertising on all media It's hard to ignore. An artist's interpretation or spin on the subject is irresistible. I wanted a poster pop-art look with the food looking thick, textured and glistering fresh goodness, but with the spin of a message no advertising company would dare! Its comic clip art representation was in symbol of how advertising simplify the look and manipulates the image to show what looks nice but never looks the same out the box. The lettering is in part advertising but have twisted to mean how it is not how you imagine. The background light and colourful, not red as I first thought of doing. The cuttings from a newspaper, which is becoming rare these days with social media

Pop-art is all about modern popular culture and the mass media. My clip-art is a variant of this, taking inspiration from today's news media and combining it with today's obsession. The work has a poster, abstract feel is highly visible, colourful and textual adding impact and colour to any wall.

The Beatles rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960, comprising John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. They are regarded as the most influential band to date. This painting is in celebration and incredible endurance and innovation in music history.

The portrait of Margaret Thatcher is in strong contrast of shadows is represented not by skin tone but contracted with pure almost primary colours mixed on the canvas at speed which retained it's vibrant fresh look of colours.

A very colourful and decorative painting which was inspired by William Morris and the need to add move interest and movement to the background.

An anatomical abstract figure in a box in isolation. A contemporary painting artist, observation and meaning. Some parts of the body compressed against an illusion of clear glass.

Colourful and textured, thick and lush paint has a unique dimensional abstract quality.

Textured and colourful the play of form, shades, light and colour interact and play to add life and movement, complementing the juxtapositions of colour and form.

Influences include Rothko and Hodgkin's but in a different style and exaggerated and simplified using large pallet of impasto paint in multiple and or single bold shapes of pure colour.

They evoke a childhood memory of a coloured boiled sweet, and penny gum, or flower petal, could almost taste it. The thick, creamy texture that shines and cisterns in its purity is all that is needed.

Pure colour is evocative of emotion and memories of one's own experiences and thought. They evoke a childhood memory of a coloured boiled sweet, and penny gum, or flower petal, could almost taste it. The thick, creamy texture that shines and cisterns in its purity is all that is needed.

The circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning. It represents the notions of totality, wholeness, original perfection, the self, the infinite, eternity, timelessness, all cyclic movement, God is a circle whose centre is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere Hermes Trismegistus. Lines of different transparency on heavily textured colours, and the way colours change as they are seen at different angles and distances.

The picture is a combination of two styles in one. The portrait and hands are painted with traditional oils in detail. Everything else is in loose style, an abstraction. The main focus is the face but becomes far more dramatic with big slabs of colour and loose brush strokes. The background was particularly designed to allow the scraping back to reveal dramatic contract of colour and give the work a depth in tone and colours.
