A Triumphant Return of Swallows
Description:
A Triumphant Return of Swallows is a large wide seascape oil painting of swallows returning to England from across the sea. It is 60x30x1.5 inches. The painting shows clouds grouped in the middle of the painting with the sun behind them with just a few beams shining out from it. A calm and serene sea shows a single wave rolling onto the shore and the beach in the foreground hints as the pull of the sea back and forth across wet sand The colours are reflected in the colours of the five swallows who are triumphantly arriving across the land from the sea to roost. It is a long journey for them from Africa to England. The drama playing out is made more effective by the edges of the sea and sky being blurred so that energy catapults out from the centre of the canvas. This more than just a seascape painting. It is a painting about the strength and beauty of nature and how the instinct to survive makes incredible things happen. Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist

The Story Unfolding
Description:
The Story Unfolding is a large pink, orange and rainbow coloured semi-abstract painting of an autumn landscape deer on a path to another universe. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The back ground of the painting is bright orange and magenta and towards the centre you see a fallow deer buck and a doe. They look as if they are deciding on something. Behind them are three other female deer running along a path towards a bend with trees either side of them. There is an urgency to them as if they know something we donât. The edges of the landscape surrounding the deer are quite colourful and abstract and give the appearance that the landscape is somehow unravelling. The idea was to literally show a universe coming into creation or perhaps morphing into something else. It is painted on deep edge canvas, edges orange/magenta, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity.

Stag Materializing
Description:
Stag Materializing
Stag Materializing is an oil painting of a red deer stag painted in a semi abstract style and in vibrant rainbow colours. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The painting is multilayered and multicoloured but the predominate colours are purples and oranges. The face and antlers of the stag are painted in a portrait style but the body becomes more and more transparent as it recedes into the strange space of the background. To the right is the hint of a pine tree. The painting was made as I sometimes really just want to paint a beautiful animal. Be advised that there is a texture to the painting as another painting is underneath it (also of a stag but smaller) some of this can be detected by touching it but it does not affect the majesty of the painting. Painted on 3D canvas, edges white, no frame needed, ready to hang, comes with certificate of authenticity by the artist.

The Spell Caster
Description:
The Spell Caster is a warm, colourful autumn woodland path semi-abstract painting with barn owl. It is 30x30x1.5 inches. The painting is mostly orange and purple and though is clearly of woodland, it is built up with many transparent layers of rainbow colours and vertical marks and drips that give the painting the idea of it flickering in and out of a different reality. I find woodland magical and I find owls magical and I love autumn so this is the combination of those things. It was mostly inspired by some of areas of woodland around the Ashdown Forest in Sussex where you can go quite suddenly from a sunlight heathland into dark and sinister patches of dark forest. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang, not frame needed and comes with a certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist.

Natures Cathedral, an autumn landscape
Description:
Natures Cathedral is a very large golden oil painting of an autumn forest clearing. It is 60x36x1.5 inches. The painting shows the view into a clearing along an autumn path with a semi-transparent deer stag just visible on the left. The style is semi abstract and contains the full range of vibrant autumn colours but with a golden hue across them. There is also the hint of beams of light shining thought the trees at many different angles and that helps create a feeling of energy and something otherworldly. The painting was inspired by various woodland walks taken in the Sussex area and the odd glimpse of deer in them. I am sometimes struck by how woodland paths are almost spiritual in the feeling they give off â hence the name. Forests are natureâs cathedrals. You can often feel you are being observed in forests and I like the how different forests evoke different emotions. Some are welcoming, some are just barely tolerating your interruption and some are actually quite sinister. This painting is a big welcoming glowing forest. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang, no frame needed, comes with certificate of authenticity.

Follow the Dream
Description:
A golden, vibrantly coloured panoramic oil painting of the path through an ancient woodland in autumn. 40x16x1.5 inches. The painting technique is blurred and impasto and has a golden glow to it that changes throughout the day depending on the light. This painting almost vibrates with the promise of good things around the next bend. The inspiration was lots of woodland walks taken in autumn in the East Sussex area where the paths through the trees are often well worn and very old. Many were droversâ paths used for herding animals and the echoes of the past are very strong in some of them. I tried to capture the feeling of anticipation and hope of revelation that I often get when around trees and ancient forests. The title refers to the idea that it is a good idea to dream and that you may find what you are looking for around the next bend⦠Dedicated to nature conservationists everywhere. Painted on 3D canvas. Edges painted dark purple, no frame needed.

Somewhere in an Autumn Clearing
Description:
This oil painting is 40x40x1.5 inches and shows a glowing autumn landscape with two swallows playing in a clearing. It is semi abstract in style and painted using techniques that allow the viewer a glimpse of a little magical universe. The energy and the drama of an autumn clearing and trees is shown in the flow lines and blurred edges and other whimsical flourishes. The colours range through purple, blue, magenta, orange and golden yellow. The two swallows are swooping and diving in a clearing beyond a tree on the left and a patch of golden green meadow and more trees beyond. The sun is shining and the swallows are having a last meal before they fly south from England for the winter. The painting was inspired by the Wadhurst area of Sussex which has many rolling meadows and crevices and patches of woodland and streams where magical things take place if you just take care to look⦠(which I do!) Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang and no frame needed.

She Dreams, a deer abstract
Description:
She Dreams is a painting of a delicate female fallow deer in a semi-abstract landscape. It is 36x30 inches. The deer stands to the left having just emerged from a birch wood. There is a lake and mountains behind her and the sun above. The style is semi-abstract art nouveau but the deer is realistic against her magical landscape. The colours range through golden yellow, orange, pink, purples and white. Though I know deer may not be deep thinkers, they are, nevertheless, beautiful and mysterious animals and have the ability to enchant me no matter how often I come across them. This painting was inspired by a little deer I found half way up a hill last summer. She stood and stared at me for 2 minutes until finally vanishing into a patch of woodland. Oil on canvas, deep white edges, no frame needed, comes with certificate of authenticity.
