I am not working to present some kind of painterly front, but see myself involved in a process of discovery with paint which is an integral part of my personality. While the paintings below are very diverse in style, exploring the process of painting is my main preoccupation, so I'm committed to doing that rather than producing a body of work which looks cohesive. I've selected just a few examples, some from 2008 as well as 2009.
"St Peter" Oil on Canvas 2008
"Pot In The Garden" (detail) Acrylic on paper 2008
"Blue Boat" Jenny Meehan Oil on canvas 2008
Based on an image of a Constable sketch, and my study of three printed reproductions of Ivon Hitchens landscape painting.
Another interpretation of a different Constable image. 2008
