Abstract works are for the viewer to interpret, and everyone will see different things in them, although the title may hint at my own particular feelings when creating this piece. I am inspired by nature – sometimes close-up textures and organic shapes, sometimes light and weather, and sometimes nature in the widest sense of the cosmos. If you have any questions about this particular artwork, please do not hesitate to contact me at the email on my profile page. I start abstract works with no particular image in mind, concentrating at first on establishing a good balance of colour, tone and texture. As the work progresses a theme, image or idea will appear, and I then develop the work accordingly. Each work is built up from many layers of paint - scratched, poured, and glazed across the surface - often over a very long period of time. Fibres, acrylic texture pastes and even brush hairs may be incorporated into the work. Only artist’s-quality lightfast colours have been used to create the work. The painting is protected with a two-coat acrylic varnish. The canvas is painted on the sides and ready to hang unframed, although a minor dent in the wooden frame of the canvas means that one edge of the painting is not perfectly straight. Framing will remove this issue, should you choose to do that, but I have also hung this painting in my living room and in an exhibition without a frame. Copyright Alexander Raynham © 2014.

I am an artist and writer with paintings in private and corporate collections in Turkey, the UK, the United States, Canada and Australia. I live in Adana, Turkey. I am a member of both local and national jury-selected artists' associations and often participate in Turkish-government sponsored exhibitions in other countries. I paint in both figurative and abstract styles, but most recently my interest has been in capturing the kind of details in nature that you would usually pass by without a second glance: things like weathered rocks, broken branches and dying leaves. The idea behind this 'Vanitas' series is perhaps that the value and beauty of the ordinary things in nature lies in their impermanence. Many of my works are built up of multiple layers over a long period of time − using a variety of techniques and tools. Layers of paint are poured, glazed, scratched, and rubbed away until the desired effect is achieved. Each exhibition I take part in brings me into contact with many artists and art lovers, whose feedback and reactions to my work I find invaluable. I continue to develop new techniques and explore new approaches in order to develop my personal response to the world around me.
