Bigger Oil Paintings For A Change.....

Much larger artworks relatively than the square 13.5 cm oils on board usually displayed on this blog, the earliest of these paintings were commenced in the last weeks of 2017 and completed early this year.  Two were inspired by weather conditions generated by Storm Eleanor, which hit during the night of 3rd January, 2018.  And the heavy textures of 'The Clean Wave' result from the reworking of an earlier artwork. Rendered in oil on canvas, each one is set in a chunky white painted wood frame.


The first is currently displayed in the window of Art Space Gallery, St Ives

Collage two paintings 30 x60 cm

In this detail, the anaglypta, pink florist's cellophane and paint on canvas can be seen. Reddish/brown transparent glazing in the centre section and swirls of aqua opaque impasto on the right. This includes a piece of anaglypta from Carol Parsons painting class back in March, 2009? This particular piece of wallpaper has already been used to 'print paint to canvas'. Victoria Hilliard produces lovely ceramic pictures inspired by nature, including the portrayal of moths and butterflies. Would I have produced this collage if Tori were not a member of Art Space Gallery? Maybe not. Everything is 'grist to the visual mill' as far as artists are concerned. 'Floral - Pedestal' this painting just evolved. Fun, fun and more fun! 'Floral - Feel Amazing'. I love this artwork! My daughter's boyfriend bought her flowers, including old fashioned roses, which provided the inspiration for the flowers at the top of the painting and the cellophane wrapper is
