I’ve just finished a new painting this week, one that I am delighted in….. I love painting beautiful women, and unicorns, and woodland, so this painting of a golden haired goddess riding a unicorn in a magical woodland is one that I have absolutely adored doing… I love the white pure light blending around their […]
I knew when I went on holiday to the Loire Valley in France in June 2011 and first saw the ancient doorway of part of the ruin of an old chateau on a hill, that I wanted to paint it. I didn’t realise at the time that it would be almost 9 years before that […]
I’m a big reader, I love books, I love getting lost in a story, and my fella is the same. Some of the books I read he’s not bothered about, and equally some of the books he reads I’m not either. But the other day he showed me a passage in the latest book he […]
As it’s been a while since I did a proper painting, one from start to finish, with all the thought process’s that are involved with it, so I didn’t expect it to be easy. When I say “proper painting” I don’t mean one where I am just copying a basic scene from a photo, I mean […]
It’s good to know when you’re on the same wavelength as someone else. Particularly if they’ve commissioned a painting from you. Particularly when the subject matter is something as specific as Goddesses. Because just because I see them in a certain way, doesn’t mean the client does! So, I was happy to arrange a “work […]
After sorting out whatever the problem was with the headless chicken, he came to see me for us to discuss the work I’ve done so far for the goddesses painting. He knew he’d asked for a complex painting, when he asked me to do the commission, but I hadn’t realised how complex it was until I started […]
Well it’s been a funny sort of year – certainly art-wise I’ve not done as much as I’d have liked and yet when I look back I have actually achieved an awful lot – I’ve continued with the Fantasy Fannies abstracts, painting more of the brightly coloured and highly popular Queyntes and Tarses in acrylics. That in […]
I’ve been searching for a long time for a gallery. One that’s right for me. Because I don’t fit the criteria of most galleries. I’m not a traditional artist and I’m not contemporary either. I love doing erotic art and painting fantasy, but I enjoy painting old buildings, tigers, cats, dancers and horses too. But […]
Well, its here again, one of the local exhibitions I get involved in. That time, when I chose my ten paintings, trying to pick the best ones that I think will sell, that will look good as a collection, that will appeal to the buying public. And I wrap them up carefully, write out the […]
