Tranquil Moment Painting

I am a self taught artist working mainly in oil on board. I paint landscapes and seascapes with big rolling skies and open foreground. A recent body of work draws inspiration from the ever changing coast line, cliffs and coves along the North East coast. Previous bodies of work include a number of paintings of some of the old industrial sites which used to be peppered around the North East. These are in a style I would call Industrial impressionism, many layers of paint applied impasto with a pallet knife. Currently I am exploring a more abstract or semi abstract style, again these are a collection of landscapes and seascapes from imagination and inspired by a song called Small Hours by the late great John Martin. In the course of my work I often revisit themes and topics. I feel I will return to the industrial theme and create another set of paintings in that style. I have included a number of paintings from each body of work. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work.
