Coming Home Through The Snow

December 31st, 2011

Walking home in the snow can be a wonderful thing. The world is quiet, blanketed in the crisp, fresh snow. The flakes fall softly all around you, everything is shrouded in grey but the lights ahead glow with the warmth and comfort of home.

City Park Sunshine – Regents Park Blossom

November 5th, 2011

Another City Park Sunshine landscape painting. Or perhaps that should be cityscape? This is Regents Park in spring. There’s a beautiful stand of cherry trees covered with blossoms near the boating lake on the south of the park.

It’s a wonderful place to sit and this year spring was early and hot. It was glorious! :-)

Regents Canal In Summer

October 8th, 2011

If you stand at Kings Cross Station in Central London you know you’re in the heart of a large, busy city, with the roar of the traffic and the crowds. But walk five minutes up the road and down a flight of steps and you are in another world. The green, watery quiet world of Regents Canal.

Once on the towpath the noise of the city vanishes, the light is green and gold as it comes through countless leaves on the many trees that line the canals. The sounds are water lapping and birds singing. People walk, jog and cycle along the canals or sit and read the papers. From Kings Cross it’s a lovely walk up the canal to Camden Lock with its colourful markets. Stop here for a fresh juice or a cup of coffee. Then back onto the canal and a little further on you’re in Regent’s Park. And you never needed to see a road or hear the roar of traffic along the way.

Red Stag

August 24th, 2011

I’m on a roll with landscapes at the moment it seems. Here’s one of Scotland. A glorious red stag with a backdrop of Scotland’s wonderful Glen Etive. I adore the Scottish landscape, it’s so breath taking!

This image may not be used in any way whatsoever without the written permission of the artist.

What a fabulous excuse for luscious colour! Those reds and purples contrast so deliciously with the greens and yellows. Can you tell how much I enjoyed doing this one? :-)

City Park Sunshine

August 22nd, 2011

OK, I admit there are no animals in this one! But this is one of my favourite trees, I just love the way it looks and the beauty of it’s flowers when it’s in bloom in the spring. It really brightens up my day.

Gordon Square

I’ve been wanting to do some paintings of London for a while now. Something that shows the beauty of city living, and this tree in Gordon Square is the first (and hopefully not the last) of that series. In fact, you might recognise this tree, it also appears in my Siamese cat painting, In The Pink, it’s the tree behind the stretching cat!

It was a beautiful sunny spring day and the light coming through the tree was full of hot colours. I used lots of small marks to capture the sparkle of the light and the warmth of those colours.

Ch Blackslate’s Boston Brahmin

August 30th, 2010

This  is a 20×16 inch painting on board of the famous and handsome dog Brahmin, standing in front of the Boston Lighthouse.

 Blackslate's Boston Brahmin

This is a very special painting. It’s going to be auctioned at the American Bullmastiff Association Art Auction, in Boston, on the 24th of September. The proceeds will go to the ABA to help with the work they do with bullmastiffs. All animals charities are struggling in these difficult times, so I hope this painting will help raise much needed funds for ABA and bullmastiffs.

The Flock On the Move

May 12th, 2010

Here’s one of the large Ashdown Forest paintings framed. I’m very pleased with these frames, they look wonderful. This is the flock of Hebridean sheep moving through the forest heath.

Here’s a close up of the canvas…

 


The Flock Heading Home

May 11th, 2010

This is another painting for the Ashdown Forest show. The sheep are heading home in the evening light. This is a small 10×8 oil on board. Not sure of a title yet.

 


Autumn Feast

April 23rd, 2010

This is a painting for the Ashdown Forest show in May. Fallow deer grazing in the bracken in the woods. It’s painted in acrylics with lots of thick, juicy paint strokes to create the autumn colour in the bracken, I wanted it to be more abstract and colourful than realistic.

 

Here’s a close up of the paint surface…


In The Pink

April 14th, 2010

Here is my new Siamese cat painting, In The Pink.  It’s taken me a while to paint it. I loved the pose, Kimi stretching on the fence. He looks fabulous and his people kindly gave me permission to use him as a model. He makes a wonderful model too!

But it took me quite a while to get the backdrop right.

There are lots of different pinks, purples and reds in that tree!

I’ve even managed a tiny human figure in the garden, reading under a tree. That’s a first for me.

  I hope to exhibit it in the Society Of Feline Artists show in London in September. He is a 20×16 inch oil painting on canvas board.
