Recent Small Paintings

In these smaller paintings, I developed the surface of the painting by working freely at the outset to build up layers of paint which then gave me a base from which to build, excavate and develop a composition.

Some of these paintings were begun with a specific landscape in mind which then informed both their palette and their composition. In other examples, the landscape idea emerged through the painting process and relates to either an imagined or an actual experience of a particular landscape.

The Sky - Lake Series

Inspired by frequent visits to the South German Alps the six paintings below were developed back in the studio, over a period of time and as a series. A pre-occupation began to emerge which has become a longer term theme for exploration; this is the playing off against one another of the differences between the portrayal of sky (a sense of spaciousness, the use of light-touch techniques such as splattering), of water / the lake (exploiting and exploring the degrees of fluidity of the paint) and of the land (the use blocks of saturated colour).

The River 3 Series

These paintings follow on from the larger River 1 and River 2 paintings (see Recent Large Paintings) in which the intention was to capture a visceral sense of the flow of water in a river whilst also enjoying a sense of both colour and form that both paint and the act of painting, enable.

In the presentation of the series, River 3, below, I'm demonstrating how this series of smaller paintings might be hung together to create a larger image. Whilst the paintings can be bought individually, the hanging of the six paintings together constructs the larger image of a river running between both of its banks.
