Studio View Blog: Latest Artworks, News and Inspiration.
This Blog ‘Studio View’ is a regular update of my new work, upcoming exhibitions, some work in progress images and photographs of what inspires me to paint.
My work is all about the ever changing light in the landscape.
“Atmosphere is the sensation directed upon the viewer, whereas mood is the actual feeling provided”.
Transform your space with this stunning large canvas impressionist painting.
I’m always drawn to how the light falls at different times of the day and the unique colours in both the sky and on the landscape below and this impressionist sunrise painting really captures that.
My new spring series of landscape paintings
I replicate energy through expressive brushstrokes, subtly recreating the sense of atmosphere found in the shadows along the horizon and in the ever shifting, changing light of the sky.
A selection from a series of seasonal landscapes,
Clouds are a fascinating subject, because the scenes are constantly evolving and changing every second. You can look down at your sketchbook and try to paint what you’re seeing, then glance back up to find it changed, so you must either start again or continually adapt over and over.
Rolling Mist inspired by a recent trip to Wiltshire, UK
Why not transform your space with this beautiful small landscape painting with it’s wispy clouds gently cascading across the sky with all the different blues ever moving and changing.
Molten Sunset is still one of my favourite landscape paintings
I loved painting this 40 × 40 cm canvas. With my favourite music on, I used one brush, rarely lifting or washing it. The continuous, intuitive method produced a beautiful atmospheric abstract painting with just a touch of impressionism.
Explore my beautiful range of landscape and seascape paintings
A selection of my landscape paintings in various sizes and showing the different seasons and different times of the day.
One of my seascape paintings
It is painted on paper so I had to be a mix of deliberate and spontaneous with the brushstrokes as the paint dried so quickly. You just can’t work the same way as you would with canvas where you have time to blend or add colour.
Shifting light and expressive brushstrokes.
Introducing one of my archive paintings from my collection that combines contemporary impressionism with bold abstraction evoking the shifting light and textures of the landscape.
Today’s landscape painting is: Radiant Clouds
I often feel that capturing the atmosphere of the landscape and a memory and mood are more important than precise detail.
The palette is predominantly neutral with warm undertones and the brushwork a mix of confident, broad and delicate layers.
Here’s another small abstract painting: Sunburst Morning
This painting is a very spontaneous piece that I always gravitate toward when the artwork is smaller. I particularly love the bright yellow brushstrokes, the lively interplay of colour and light, and the rich texture that gives the surface a tactile, expressive depth.
Would this fit your space………..
My latest landscape painting: Sunset Melody
This new painting, ‘Sunset Melody’ is part of my latest collection in a series of beautiful, evocative sunsets painted in my semi-abstract style capturing the fleeting and poetic mood of evening light.
Sunlit Breath the ideal painting for that small space.
My inspiration comes from nature but the interpretation is guided by my own feelings and a personal response to the mood, colour and sense of space in the light combined with my own emotional memories.
Could you find a place for this painting………..
My large impressionist canvas paintings
My large stretched canvas acrylic landscape paintings are primarily impressionist in style although I often introduce the occasional abstract touch to add texture, energy and shadows to the light.
Continuing my abstract series of Spring paintings
I’m continuing my current early Spring series of paintings on canvas and paper which are inspired by the delicate, shifting light in the landscape at this coming time of the year.
I wonder which one is your favourite……….
Lingering Sundown is one of my more affordable beautiful abstract paintings.
I often find it helpful to place a smaller painting in an interior setting so I can better imagine how it will look at different dimensions and within a variety of room layouts, lighting conditions, and alongside different furniture and décor.
Each painting that I sell I will be donating 10% to the Alzheimer’s charity in loving memory of my Mum.
