Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
Inspired by the paintings of nudes by Modigliani and Picasso, but portrayed as if the model was observed through frosted glass. At a close distance, the image appears to be quite abstract. However, when viewed from further away and with half-closed eyes, the pose of the female form and bodily features become more recognisable. The process begins with a colour photograph which is then edited extensively using computer software until the desired effect is achieved. The image is then projected onto the primed stretched canvas and the outlines of the image are traced lightly onto the canvas in pencil. Acrylic paint is applied with a palette knife to the front of the stretched canvas and on all edges too. The painting is supplied stretched onto a deep-edge wooden stretcher, fitted with brass wire, brass fixings and felt pads, ready to hang on your wall.

Prior to attending my degree course I had been experimenting with painting in a cloisonné style not unlike that of Patrick Caulfield and Valerio Adami but using mixed media. At art college I developed this style further by continuing to paint using bold, block colours but now using Liquitex acrylic on canvas and without the black outlines. After graduating in 1982 I continued to paint for a short while and sold a few paintings, but then focussed on a career that involved writing, arranging, performing and teaching music. I returned to painting in 2011 using a similar stripped-down figurative style of painting, but now concentrating on nudes and portraits of my favourite rock, pop and jazz musicians. Conventionally, an artist chats to the sitter whilst their portrait is being created in their presence, resulting in the subject’s personality becoming captured within the image. My portraits are painted to a backdrop of the “sitter’s” music playing, which enables me to encapsulate in a painterly fashion my interpretation of their musical identity. Requests for commissions are most welcome.
