A still life is not just for Xmas!!

 

I have been kept very busy with commission works for a few weeks now and I have struggled to create any general work. I am fortunate and have a number of commissions which will keep me busy during the first couple of months of 2016.

 

As a way of signing off until the New Year as on Thursday next week Gael - Alfie the cocker spaniel and me head off on our annual Xmas odyssey to East Yorkshire until the New Year, I am happy to present the last Nicholson Still life which has been sitting waiting for me to finish for some time.

Ben Nicholson line drawings I and II

As you are well aware the work of Ben Nicholson was a key reason as to why I decided late in life to explore creating my own artwork. These pieces I created in 2012 when I was desperately pushing myself to learn to draw.

Mood I - in the style of Jackson Pollock - SOLD

This is a working sketch which formed part of a presentation to a commission opportunity for a client who owns a stunning property on Beach Road, Sandbanks.

The final canvas measured a whopping 8' x 6' which I am glad to say the client was delighted with despite me having worked on it for three months due to layering the paint and drying time!!

This piece you will see is a much smaller piece and is set in a wonderful wide frame and hand painted in off white and will add a splash of color to any interior.
