“Go” 100cm x 50cm – oil on canvas
This is a fun painting – I tried to show the colour, and the blur of the St. Agnes start line. This is currently in ‘Sulley’s Framing – Penryn
‘Circling for the start’ 80cm x 60cm – oil on canvas
With so many boats now in the racing, you have to find your space in the water whilst waiting for the heat to start. It made me think of sharks circling. This one is in Fowey River Gallery
”To Tresco’ 31cm x 31cm – oil on canvas
A view of the islands from the ferry on the way home. A quick visit, I always wish I could stay longer. This piece is also at Fowey River Gallery.
Coming soon … New gig rowing paintings and sketches.
I’ve just got back from the Isles of Scilly World Pilot Gig Championships, and out of my seat in stroke of one of the gig boats.
It was a great weekend – with the competition for places hard fought in all the heats, not just those at the top. I’m back with a sore throat from singing, sore hands from rowing (but with bottom luckily more or less intact) . Over the next few weeks I will be posting new gig rowing art from the championships, and trying to capture the colour and excitement – and hard work – of gig racing.
This is one I made earlier. It’s called ‘At the start line’ and can be found at the Fowey River Gallery.
I am interested in the beauty that lies around me.
I want to capture the essence of an image which otherwise might be overlooked.
My art is about the landscape of life in all its forms – it’s fleetingness, it’s poetry, it’s loneliness, and it’s reality.
There are many things which inspire me, however, my work settles within three categories.
