Thursday painting class

Whizzed in with some acrylics and squeezed out these three paintings on canvas paper in the class.

An homage to Euan Uglow. So grateful to Graeme Drendel for introducing me to this inspirational painter.

Experiments with Acrylics

It has been far too long since I had a concerted period of time in the studio. So I have resolved to get in there and to get cracking. A series of experiments/exercises to get going.

These are old canvases that have been overpainted.... around 40x50cm

New small works

Mixed media, acylic and oil.
 Based on cityscapes

Power Lines on the way to Geelong

Painting again

After an intensive year of photography and printmaking I have been immersed in the studio this week, painting. I am getting works ready for the Contemporary Artist Society exhibition at Burnley Underpass.
More details later.
Here are 2 images of the under painting from the first work. It is a large work  for me - 120 cm x 120 cm.
So I had to photograph it in the back yard - and I liked the shadows that fell across it - and the stray leaves from a rogue spinach plant.

The final image is quite different......

Painting again - in progress

I have been finding printmaking rather frustrating - things are not working out as I would like. So I have started 2 paintings that make me feel happy and cheerful. I can see a trend with earlier works.

Painting - in progress

I have been working on this - around A2 size with an aim to familiarise myself with acrylic paints rather than oil. I have used a bit of impasto to get the texture of the sea.
