This work depicts the depth of thought a chess player will go through to gain an early advantage. The different pieces open to the player and the squares they will have to travel. This painting, although the medium is oil, uses a technique to emulate the wood in the pieces and board.

Born in 1954, now living in Buckinghamshire, UK, my painting style has gone through three phases. The first a series of chess paintings portraying the calculated thoughts and emotions involved in chess play. Following this I devised a technique of painting hands in watercolour using its translucency in layering and colour washing to create the skin effect. In the third and most recent series I have utilized the strength of colour in acrylics to paint floating orbs, depicting the cosmic independent elements in the creation and destruction of the universe in a contrived but random design. This series is ongoing and is now being developed further. I like to think of my style as being calculated and deliberate with an underlying depth of thought behind the physical medium. I am also a successful author with nine novels to date, including the acclaimed top 100 book 'The Unfortunate Basil Albright.'
