New Paintings
Current work is solely on MDF panels, working on a rough ground with a three-colour pallet, using a limited brush size and drawing with sandpaper. This allowed exploration of the accidental and chaotic – a characteristic I consider important in figuritive work. The absence of full colour lends a less distractive experience and allows the imagery to command a striking presence.
Enjoy.
