To the Future 2020 oil on canvas.
A self portrait by way of introduction. I painted this in spring/summer 2020 in lockdown. I was on my own and found the experience isolating but also somewhat liberating in part. This painting explores the anxiety and loneliness I felt.

An alla prima self portrait selfie portrait. I wanted to see what I could paint quickly rather than my usual slower layers of paint. I'm very satisfied with the fabric and flowers. Quick and definite marks. Stropy face though 😂

Weeds on the Blast Top. Years ago. 2012? I should date things!
The rolling small ridges of sandy earth were probably the results of rough, careless clearing. And the weed? i don't know what it was.

It is remarkable to think Ellen Thesleff painted this portrait of her sister Thyra Elisabeth in 1892. After leaving Finland the previous year to study in Paris, Ellen returned home and became one of the key figures who introduced Impressionism to the country.

They are selling peonies in M & S and I am in two minds about this breach of the peony season law!!!!
Here's my painting of some from the summer because why not and because I like the wait for the summer. I like the specialness of them being there for a season. But I was also a little bit tempted!!

'Face of the Moon.' (1797) John Russell was the finest British pastel artist of his time. One of his sitters, the astronomer William Herschel encouraged him to buy a telescope, and with this he produced a number of remarkable pastel drawings of the moon.

The muscular tension of the boxers in George Bellows's 'Club Night,' gives it an unexpected modernity, painted as it was in 1907, six years before the famous Armory Show which brought cubism and post-impressionism to a bewildered New York public.

'Autumn.' (1908) Leo Putz studied at the Académie Julian under William Bouguereau but despite his academic training, he was more interested in avant garde subjects and impressionistic forms of expression being pioneered by Gauguin and Renoir, which informed his own work.

William Nicholson was always torn between the need to paint society portraits and his love for still lifes and landscape painting. His admiration of Manet is evident in this still life - the eye is led into the picture’s depth by the black pansy, the title of this work from 1910.
