Breathe

Breathe

There's a sense here of movement, expansion, life. That's very much where the title for the work has come from, there's a sense that more movement could occur.

I'm exploring the random expression that occurs in the photograph here. Breathe has a sense of something hostile, something below the surface. It gives an impression of being under water, through the vibrant colours there is a sense of drowning going deeper and deeper. Perhaps the colours are the lights from the world of glamour that is above the surface, gone forever. Colours blur becoming a haze in the mist of the deep darkness below. It reminds me of a mural on the inside of Sydney Opera House.
Goodness Gracious

Goodness Gracious

I named this Goodness Gracious as it shocked me when I first saw it. As with other works of mine I'm always interested in how the colour portrays itself and movement features strongly in my pieces.
There is a sense of speed here something moving across deep space, futuristic even!

All of my work is very much related to colour, movemnet, line, and space. To me a photograph is representative of the canvas. When I paint I explore the various mixes of colour, the same is true with digital art, especially abstract art. The images that occur do just that, they occur within the pixels, manifesting themselves in ways that would never be seen before. The exhaustive editing techniques are applied not to present perfection but rather to uncover something within.
Mystery over Manhattan

Mystery over Manhattan

I started this piece many years ago, from time to time I've worked on it but it has never gripped me until now.You will want to turn it around but it's this way because I wanted to give a sense of size, the size of the planet.

This photo manipulation is based on an older work that I couldn't seem to see as a complete piece. The vibrancy of this piece is created by almost planet like movement of the red circle. It brings a colourful image to life and makes a dynamic impact on the viewer.

Questioning my big decision!

I don't know what patterns the brain makes as it goes about daily business? Following the decision of a career change and the choice to follow a dream, i think this goes beyond what my conscious mind feels in regards to my latest expedition.

It's very much based on how i feel now, at this moment in time, it's a picture of my mind, it colours differently each day as i make decisions that may change my life, not again it says! The colours don't clash, the shapes are a history of time as perfected in my sub consciousness, yet something is at odds with something else. Is there a balance in this see of confusion? Yes i think there is, we've seen it all before.

I took some time developing a range of images to be used by a charity working in Africa. The piece encapsulates the dryness of the African plain and is representative of the sun setting over the wilderness. It's bold and bright and has simple lines which change colour just as the light in Africa shifts and changes the environment. It's a safe place yet menacing.
A Definitive Year

A Definitive Year

2008 was a good year for me, I had my first piece accepted into an Art Exhibition, it felt good to be recognised.
I interpret the piece to show the brightness of acceptance whilst the sides are still in shade, perhaps something dark is about to occur?

Red Mist

Red Mist

I had a dream of what my first painting for 5 years would look like, this isn't it. As I began to paint a kind of mist came over me, it was very liberating. My engagement with the canvas was not as I had first anticipated, you can see that there's some tenstion here, not a lot but enough.

I'm told that my work has a 'Corporate' feel about it, those who have seen this piece feel it would be great in an entrance to a building, it's one take. We so need to compartmentalise art these days, whether it's contemporary or abstract or corporate! To some extent I agree but to see it as purely a 'corporate' image in some way limits its value, not in financial terms more it's core value. Perhaps the title 'Sinister' has something to do with those 'Corporate' institutions known as banks?

Wood for the Trees

Striving to find the perfect conclusion, I've become frustrated with the canvas, working the paint this way and that. The finished piece is the fourth acrylic this month, I guess that in it's style it's representational of a direction I see myself going in. Sinister depths of washed colour with bright hues on the horizon.
