Clyde View Fragmentation
- After an enjoyable visit to the Bucharest modern (1880-1930) art museum floor I took a view looking north from Greenock across the Clyde and did something a little different...A serene view with a modern (1920-ish) twist. Just like my last abstracts I'm exploring angles, shades and rectangular palette knives. An interesting phase for me and a reflection of my mind…

Performance (Workflow Transformation)
- Workflow is a common business term that has retained popularity as many processes now become automated using technology. Whether it's following a document approval path in an organisation or adjusting photos before posting to social media, the steps in the process define the workflow. I consider these steps to be fundamental to my creative workflow; explore, paint, publish; repeat. Do…

Vistas From The Cut – Looking North
- Back again on the Greenock Cut trail and this time the view is to the north taking in the hills and mountains across the Firth of the Clyde to the Cowal Peninsula. At intervals along the path are small stone bridges across the water channel and in the distance Ben Lomond reaches up with snow at the peak. The bridge's…

Public Privacy
- You are transparent. Your data is more important than you. You expect misdirection. You expect your data to be used in ways you did not agree to. You are influenced by other people and opinions. Your world is not linear or smooth. You don't know if you're being manipulated. A bit darker than my usual pieces. The use of red,…

Arran Arises
- There's a view of the Isle of Arran that appears on the A78 near West Kilbride. On this day the mist was just starting to lift but the colours of the sky, water and island were all muted but beautiful. Time to paint! My usual palette knife work but by using acrylic paints I worked it until it was dry…

Aquamarine Surf
- Here we are again a year later. It seems like it's only on holiday that I get the time to put one of these together. This one was built up over the course of a week letting each layer rest before doing the next. Unlike most of my work this is done by brush with much blending and dabbing. Respect…

Digital Definition
- The symbol that makes up most of my techart series. My definition consists of people, processes and programming with the background data feeding into the symbol. Depending on your approach, programming could be development for apps but it could also be social that uses processes to influence people. OK, I recently watched The Great Hack and was playing battleships with…

Le Phare (du Grouin du Cou)
- Take a drive along the Vendée coast next to La Rochelle and north passed L'Aiguillon-sur -Mer you'll come to La Tranche-sur-Mer; a nice beach town. Explore the edge of the town and you'll see the lighthouse near the forest; le phare du Grouin du Cou. I used a combination of white paint mixes to balance the shades on the lighthouse…

Collaborative Consciousness (Artificial General Intelligence)
- Each of the central pillars represents consciousness but which is organic and which is synthetic? Artificial general intelligence today is exciting and intimidating at the same time and as compute power increases, the line between human and machine diminishes ever further. I found finishing this piece challenging over the several weeks as it was difficult to focus with other changes…

Sunshine Sparkle
- Sunshine Sparkle. Sometimes when I've not painted for a while I need to let the art out. Don't think, just paint. I wanted to capture the shine on the waves as the rising sun reflected against them in the morning. Fast palette knife strokes helped capture the ever changing scene. Acrylics on canvas 10x14 inch - framed. Available

Under A Rose Sky
