Purrfect

11/7/2022

 
"They'll sell you thousands of greens. Veronese green and emerald green and cadmium green and any sort of green you like; but that particular green, never." - Pablo Picasso

This was a hoot to paint

Ever-hungry sausage dog, Otto, isn't the only animal growing larger around here. I love painting expressive animals and the bigger the better. The furry studio assistant, useful for scale, is often sleeping on the job but can be coaxed into a photo shoot with the promise of Good Boy Beef Bites.

Rattling along

31/5/2022

 
When renovating the bedroom of a 'mature' cyclist and his dog, a cheeky finishing touch was this large bone-shaker painting. If you are too young to remember, the bone-shaker (circa 1869) was the first bicycle with pedals. It was not built for comfort with its iron and wood construction and pedals on the front wheel.

An Elegant Muse

25/4/2022

 
This is a portrait of Clotilde García del Castello, the wife of Sorolla. It is based on Sorolla's painting entitled Clotilde con traje gris, completed in 1900. His painting measures 150 x 105 cm and located at Museo Sorolla in Madrid. My version is much smaller at 41x49.

Selection from 2021

1/1/2022

 
Here is an assortment of work created in 2021. Alongside the usual animals, still lives and portraits, a few castles were constructed and there were visits from Sorolla, Magritte and even Pearl. Deepest appreciation to all the generous souls who help with production: patrons, suppliers, photographers, ceramicist, Spanish teacher, event organisers, and above all Steve who can do everything except paint. He is making me a cup of tea as I write this. Happy New Year!
