I am an Expressive Figurative painter working in oils and mixed media using a wide variety of painterly colourist techniques.

 Paintings and drawings are built up with layers of gestural mark making using my distinctive palette of subtle and saturated colour, accented with impasto brush work, palette knife and sgraffito textures, juxtaposed with washes and areas of unpainted white canvas.

My two areas of interest are Women in society and semi figurative landscapes and seascapes.

ON THIS WEEK! 

I am delighted to have been selected for the

WOMEN IN ART FAIR

The Mall Galleries. London

9 - 12 October 2024

I've started the party season early with this Expressive figurative painting  ELITE SYNCOPATIONS! A cocktail of sharp saturated colours flavoured with a touch of ambiguity! 

Or for something more subtle... here I am in May working on a series of  contemporary landscapes for my solo show IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF TURNER at Tennants Garden Rooms Gallery, Yorkshire.

  Semi Figurative Landscapes

While responding intuitively to landscapes and seascapes en plein air, since my MA Fine Art, I am increasingly developing work into larger more semi abstract paintings in the studio focussing on celebrating and conserving rural landscapes, in my ELEMENTS OF LANDSCAPE series. Here are some examples :


The Strid, Yorkshire,  Oil on Linen  71 x 41 cm  £1250

Bracken Moor, Oil on Linen   46 x 46 cm  £950

Cotswold Autumn, Oil on Linen,  41 x 36 cm £825 

ELEMENTS OF LANDSCAPE -     The Pond, Oil on Linen,            80 x 84 cm £1895 



DIGITAL EXHIBITION AT GALERIE AGNES NORD, PARIS, DURING PARIS EXPO

A selection of my work, referencing the theme of CELEBRATIONS and my body of life drawings, is currently on show this October 2024 with ARTBOXY a Digital exhibition at Galerie Agnes NORD, 11 Rue Guenegaud 75006 Paris including showing during Paris Expo weekend: 

Elite Syncopatioms, Oil on Linen, 112 x 87cm    £2850

         Carnival, Oil on Linen,                  76 x 87 cm  £1895

Torquil, Charcoal and chalk on grey paper,    76 x 55 cm  £650

Over the winter I am at last going to start editing the 200 or so watercolour sketches done on location all over the world whilst working as Ship's Artist on cruise lines, adding amusing anecdotes and adventures on the way Here are a few examples
