The Coast
Every time I start a studio based painting I intend it to be subject free, a set of shapes, colours and lines that all work together to convey feeling. Usually though, there is a feel to the composition, things are suggested and evoked - Nature, The City, The Sea, and before long I am seduced by the idea and start to refer, as has happened here.
We are just back from a trip to the sea, so I am buzzing with it.
'Last Resort'. Acrylic, Structura and medium on panel. 25 x 30cms
This is the first time I have painted on wooden panel. It suits the way I work very well - more of an object, and can take some punishment.
