About The Artwork
During the lockdowns and upheavals of the Covid years, I started to make some paintings focussing on abstraction and colour. With the curtailment of my main source of income - photography - I looked to painting to distract me from the widespread isolation and disruption. I started with a grid of squares; put down a random colour and then tried another next to it. To my surprise and delight, I began to find the whole expanding process compelling and strangely difficult. In my mind, I was looking for colour sequences and relationships that made sense - hence the title "Colour Sudoku" - I held this loosely, I was just trying to get the colours to demonstrate their relativity to each other, harmoniously or otherwise - admittedly without quite the same rigour as numerical sudoku, but along similar lines. This painting looks great on a wall of duck-egg blue, it is unframed.

United Kingdom
Artist and Photographer, based in Central London. Over the last few years, I have painted portraits for King's College London and Rhodes House Oxford and my work is featured in private collections in Europe, America and Australia. In 2011, my portrait of Ailsa Fairleigh was selected for the Royal Society of Portrait Painters Annual Exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London. My most recent project involves painting people I admire, who truly have a passion for what they do and who in some instances have had a significant impact on my life. The portrait I painted of Bernard Purdie - the world's most recorded drummer (who played on most of the music I grew up listening to - Aretha Franklin's records in particular) is the first in this series and the portrait of my father, Peter Moorhouse, is the most recent addition. In a sense, I'm aiming at producing a body of work which will turn out to be my own self portrait.
