    • The Architect/Work-Life Balance

    • My life is about managing a fine balance between working and living and this painting attempts to address that. Firstly, this represents business solutions I design in my day (and once in a while: evening) job. The aim is to give the customer what they want and balance that with our internal teams need to provide robust supportable billable global…

    • Le Mont

    • This is my multi-perspective view of Le Mont Saint-Michel in France. You can only get so much detail from photos but going there and experiencing the many buildings, paths, trees and stairs gave me a richer understanding of the environment. I used the same knife technique with an ultraviolet/infrared style where the trees appear pink, the buildings grey and a…

    • Another concept painting before completing "Le Mont". I wanted to be sure the sky and clouds worked using the straight and curved lines. Sun rays burst from the top and the patchwork sky builds up in the background while the green abstract trees and fields compliments the other colours. Cubist Fields - Oils on board 10x14 inch.

    • Ultraviolet Night

    • A flower in cubist form. A colourful start to the warmer seasons and no blue! This is my first time looking at a rose in this style and I'm taking inspiration from images of flowers using depth of field to represent distant backgrounds. Now add in the colour of summer smells into the palette. Summer Scent - Oils on canvas…

    • Yachts sur la Côte D’Azur

    • Two big influences for this piece on top of my usual palette knife style. Firstly, the majestic Côte D'Azur with it's beautiful coastal waters and wonderful colours. Secondly, the cubist movement of the early 20th century with a little art deco thrown in. Love them all. The lines from the sky reach down to the sea and there are connections…
