In May we have an artists’ open house event in Brighton - it’s my favourite event! I’m showing this and other landscape paintings in a beautiful house in the village of Ovingdean. If you are in Sussex come and see us. If you’d like to see the paintings, please let me know.

Chalk cliffs, trillions of tiny bodies, layered and pulverised, the facts of geology giving us perspective. Well, some of us.

Colour and depth, a rockpool, perhaps? Somewhere to lose yourself.

This week, I turned off the news and painted some vermilion flowers. This will not solve anything but at least there’s been some delight in my environment. Hope you can fine small moments of beauty.
All for sale on my website shop. Not expensive

Photo shoot for the big paintings at a friend’s house - people with a lot more light and white wall space than me!
This is ‘Outcrop’ oil on canvas , 70x80 cm.
Hope you like it!

One of three paintings I made late last year about night gardens. They are strangely thin places. This is my father’s garden and the ghosts of the silver birches long gone - sometimes he’s still here, stooping among his plants

Taking bad selfies to publicise an interview for You Tube channel ArtbyArtists. It give a fascinating insight into artists’ lives and inspiration across media - I was delighted to be asked. (Photo taken by blutacking phone to window😬)

The day was heavy-lidded grey. Green drenched fields and the white house in the distance. A winter Sunday walk. #fineart #oilpainting #landscapepainting

There’s a wall at the back of my house where I hang paintings I’m working on to get some distance and see them with fresh eyes. #artgallery #painting #fineart #artstudio

Road, tree, tunnel, light? Wherever you’re travelling, let’s hope so.

Good morning bluesky. This painting is the South Downs in full spring and as I walk to the studio across the garden I see the shoots of narcissi pushing through the grass. The 12 days are over, the new days are here.
My annual painting sale has launched on my website/shop - this is one.

A flurry of new paintings after the break - getting back into the studio slowly but first, there are tax returns to do and a passport renewal application and general admin. But at least these two are finished - appropriate for these January days, Flood land I &II, now on my webshop

Hi good people of Bluesky. Is it nicer here than it is over there? This is what I'm working on today - very big, very drippy, very exciting.
