My current work includes night landscapes. These works extend my fascination with colour and composition. The repeated motif of the night sky facilitates my exploration of colour value. Mixing colour with a minimal palette I paint from observation, in darkness with a small headlamp, placing myself in an uncomfortable viewing position. I impose limitations like these in order to generate creative problem solving utilising memory, recall and intuition. There can be a sense of urgency in painting this way, an attempt to capture in paint momentary glimpses of shapes like distant light in a neighbours window, dark shadows forming unusual shapes. The resulting paintings can be naive and only vaguely recognisable, ideally though the paintings are a nostalgic and atmospheric scene that invites the viewer to recall familiar night landscapes from their own experiences.
