Visit the full exhibition from the comfort of a cafe seat. Over the next two months I will be completing drawing and painting demonstrations Book a table and watch me develop my latest portrait. Stay posted and find out when. Alternatively, you can visit me in Studio 6 to discuss artwork purchase, portrait commissions (human, animal or both), workshop bookings, 1-2-1 tuition, homeschooling or therapeutic art sessions.
Featuring works created in oils, acrylic, pencil and graphite which illustrate the ephemeral fragile natural world, and capture vivid poignant pictures in a realistic format. I naturally gravitate to ordinary people or wildlife finding themselves in extraordinary circumstances or vice versa. Much of my pleasure is in the process. In a world where colour reigns supreme, simplifying the artwork by restricting the colour scheme to a classic black and white palette gives your eye a place to rest and a break from saturated colour. Visitors can be confident of seeing the joy of mark-making and unpicking the perceptual experience.
The Foxlowe Cafe Staff and I look forward to your visit. Remember to follow current restrictions.
