Original oil painting sketch, painted from life and completed in under 3 hours. The background is a pre-painted acrylic base in Yellow Ochre which was selected to enhance and complement this models skin tone. My aim is to capture the beauty of the human figure with a swiftness and lightness of touch. I like share my process with the viewer by contrasting areas of detail with line and bare areas of coloured canvas which celebrate the medium.

I like to say that I paint ‘The Edge of The Rainbow’. The term comes from Donna Tartt’s novel, The Goldfinch as she describes a space that sits just beyond reality, where all beauty, magic and art exists. My paintings are an attempt to conjure this space, to break through this reality and try and grasp what lies just beyond what we can see. Its a place that is blurry, shimmering and impossible to capture. In practice, I use layers and layers of thin, runny oil paint to create glowing glazes of colour that vibrate and change in the light. As I apply each translucent layer I like to imagine that light and air is caught within the painting, allowing it to breathe and come alive.
