ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My landscapes are concerned with brief moments out in the hills and fields when senses combine to produce swift, free and instinctive coloured drawings from which the paintings are derived back in the studio. Although they are specific places, I name them for the emotional response to that place. The paintings are multi layered with freely expressed gestural mark making. Paintings are on box boards or canvases and intentionally presented unframed but with a clean white edge and a depth of around 4cm. Signed, dated and titled verso. Paintings are ready to hang.

If natural forms are the archetypal structures giving his work its grammar, it is Waite's affinity with colour and the many unspoken, poetic languages and realms it conveys, that is central to the intuitive, expressive compositions. Lively, spontaneous, sometimes paint laden, sometimes dry, with wide brushstrokes, linear gestural motifs and colour balancing, layers are added, scraped, scratched and worked into over several weeks. Canvases are often left turned to the wall so as to see them afresh at each reworking. Gradually the alchemy of paint, the unconscious and the imagination, on the now textured and multilayered surface, reveals the hitherto unknown and unseen. The resulting work is only considered complete if the painting, whose contours may have initially grown out of the South Downs or other loved locations, now speaks to the poetry of places that reside in long lost and longed for imaginings. Other things: an occasional poet with a book of paintings and poems published in 2014 'The Sky Lights A Fire' Not available in all good book shops. A second book 'Awake Take the Glimmering Path' 2016. A third volume, 'Eternity and the Breath of Sparrows' followed in 2018. More recently published, a collection of poems and black and white photographs was released in 2022. Made a career from exhibiting in an annual open house exhibition at home in Arundel, West Sussex since 1989, as part of Arundel Festival's Gallery Trail. 35 years of putting together a show on three floors in a beautiful Georgian home.
