ABOUT THE ARTWORK

colour sumi inks on rice paper, 16.5 x 21.5 in., 43 x 55 cm This one dates back, way back to a travel I did in India … with my complete painting gear, the largish sized paper, ink sticks and wet stones, et all. My paintings in that period were done on location, without preliminary sketches nor any working lines on the paper. This is paint applied directly on a blank page. I have often thought to redo some of the pieces from that period. Instead I look again at this sketchy watercolour item I find the humour captured here is special and unique in this scene of a chaotic main boulevard. The rice paper is a fine parchment, the paint looks as fresh today as when I first did this painting 30 years ago. The close up picture is of higher resolution to be able to get a feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting. Then there’s the photo shoot. Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Maybe a scenery or a storyboard collage from a recent travel? Contact me. More about me on facebook , instagram, twitter

I'm Canadian born now residing in Malaysia. I've been working professionally as an artist since 1980 ish… time flies. I have exhibited my paintings in Vancouver and coastal B.C., Bangkok, Singapore & Malaysia, areas I’ve lived in over time. Now I do it all online. I’ve traveled extensively over the years and you’ll see that people, places and cultures are a recurring theme in my art. I attach importance to papers I use for my paintings. Some are done on acid free watercolour papers, from 180lb weight to 300lb. I also use handmade parchment type papers. These are thick yet pliable, strong, with deckled edge that add to the look of my paintings. I’m still a passionate guy. I’m passionate about life and people, passionate about art and painting. And I feel really at my best when I’m putting all these things down on paper. I only wish I had more time to delve into all these activities of mine. But I work with what I have. My health sucks so I’m slowing down. And there's more: book illustration, portrait, comic strip, caricature. I also work with camera and computer, to create the images brush strokes just can't deliver. So follow my brush work and hopefully you’ll find that special painting meant just for you.
