ABOUT THE PRINTS
Here you will find a wide selection of original artists prints - etching in all its forms, collagraphs and lino prints. Traditional figurative images in black and white rub shoulders with colourful abstracts. Subjects here again are drawn from a love of the sea, mountains and islands. Atmospheric woodlands and quirky birds also figure. Printmaking is a relatively recent venture, just six years now and has been extremely challenging. Going back to college to study proved most stimulating, resulting in renewed creativity that has influenced not only the prints but the paintings too.
contains etchings, lino and other hand pulled original prints
ABOUT THE PAINTINGS
Strong dynamic paintings in various styles. From pure loose water-colour impressions to more figurative images with the addition of pen, ink and gouache, through to abstracts in mixed media and a small selection of oils. Subjects range from sea and landscapes, to interiors and abstracts. Though mostly painted in the studio from copious sketches made on field trips to the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Lindisfarne and North Yorkshire, the paintings are non the less evocative and have a great sense of 'place', reflecting the artist’s love of creation and The Creator.
