Outraged from Rhwbina.

 

 



 

Not really outraged, more a little bemused, maybe indignant.
Enjoying the indulgence of right verses wrong as it were.
Initial sketch for a painting.

I can hear the grass grow - The Move 1967
New cover for Facebook, also pretty well the only picture I've got for Perennial for July. Its a comment on the amount of dry and burnt grass around, surrounded by continued grow seeds and pollen.

 

Emerging cave dweller, from Dalyan - 1999

Out of the Facebook album Swipe Hands.

Now used as the portrait for my Linked-in connection, which I seem to be using a bit more than I have been. Adding stuff to my profile slowly, but surely, which seems to be actually looked at from time to time!

Paintings to finish

 

Spring Head. Taken from the light and dark and vaguely green sides of the leaves on a big row of trees. Needs more varied coldish shades of green.

These are five paintings I felt would benefit from a bit of digital work, They haven't exactly gone cold but a bit of stimulus from the machine wouldn't go amiss! (its quicker to mix up close, corresponding colours and can be done whilst tired)



June Head, again, the drawing is straight from the hip with the colours to follow. Its fairly close to finished, maybe small areas of maroon yellow and leaf green.

 



Bob's front garden - needs to get a bit more vivid.

 

 

 

A Compendium of June.

This one could run and run - I feel like just adding and adding to it. See where it goes.

 

 

The above are part of the perennial set - should have a show there by the end of the year.

The following two come from the Achilles Shield series, were painted over a year ago and simply forgotten about. Again, pretty close to a show here.

 

 

 

I cant remember the exact characters in this one offhand. Its about during a battle where death, destruction and despair come into there element. I think it basically needs more definition.

Its great to have an excuse to take on a painting of an horrific nature with an actual reason for doing it - i.e. it is part of a story.

 

 

These are the herdsmen with their dogs being able to do nothing as three lions devour their cattle.

I have just realised that I have a relatively new blog site that is pretty well inaccessible.
I haven't bothered to link it up to anything, which is unfortunate as it is the backbone of what I'm working on at the moment!
