I've long been fascinated by the moon, the way it changes and stays the same, always seeming to be just out of reach. Equally I love painting the sky and embracing the subtle challenges of painting darkness and I have brought all three things together in a playful, modular series of paintings. Each is offered individually but they can be combined in many ways. This painting is an anchor point, an origin and a punctuation mark. It stands aside from the others in that the moon is not full, and there are no clouds. It shows the moon as a bare sliver, with the rest as a dark hulk lit by earthshine. The sky is an incredibly deep set of blues that border on blackness. On its own, it is a simple moment of stillness; as part of a group it ties the other paintings together and reveals their joy. The painting is on heavy canvas and made solely with highest grade oil paints. It is framed in a slim and simple aluminium, white tray-style frame with a minimal shadow gap.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I've long been fascinated by the moon, the way it changes and stays the same, always seeming to be just out of reach.

Alan is an artist based in Surrey. From his studio in Staines-upon-Thames, he paints landscapes, investigates whatever catches his attention and is currently prototyping some top secret & beautiful things. He trained at Farnham and has shown in many open and group shows throughout London and the South East, has had one major solo show and has been artist in residence for a manor house in Buckinghamshire. His work is in many private collections. “A high proportion of my work is the local landscape. Initially this was nothing but a combination of convenience and a long term fascination with the depiction of space, but as I have dug deeper it has begun to act as a proxy for more personal ideas.”
