Precipice, palette knife oil on canvas, 76 x 76cm

As my work grows in scale so does the palette knife action. This painting demanded dynamic descriptive slabs of paint with courageous brights slamming the light and throwing shadows into deep blue, where you as viewer are protected.

My landscapes are composed to lead the eye through chaos towards space and calm. Painted to put the viewer under and amongst tree limbs and leaves shading the viewer and framing the space beyond

I paint ‘alla prima’ which means ‘at first attempt’ my paintings are usually completed within one session.
