A Courageous Soul Under the Sea
Description:
A Courageous Soul Under the Sea is a big blue sparkling underwater seascape with a single tropical fish in the centre. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The little fish is swimming at speed along the sand in shallow cerulean blue turquoise water with the deeper blue water behind her. You can see her colours reflected in the surface of the sea as the waves ripple and sparkle above her. The light shines through the water and makes sparkles on the ocean surface and across the sandy seabed. This is a paradise moment of time captured forever that aims to give the viewer a sense of space and freedom. It is another in a series of big underwater seascapes I have made over the years that began after some Caribbean snorkelling holidays. I re-live them whenever I paint them and like that I can glance at this painting and be somewhere wonderful in an instant. Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed, Comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist

Chaos in the Meadow
Description:
Chaos in the Meadow is a joyful semi abstract oil painting illustrating the sheer chaos of nature that you find in a flower meadow in summer. It is 36x30x1.5 inches. The painting is semi abstract in style and is extremely colourful. Many different types of flower and grasses are hinted at and all of them are trying to get attention which causes a beautiful chaos. This painting was made after a walk on the Sussex South Downs and I love how this one tiny patch of wildflower meadow showed me so much life and enthusiasm. I have used layers and glazes of colours to give this painting an iridescent glow and its colours change throughout the day because of this - almost like stained glass. Behind the flowers you can just about see some of the fields below the hills looking towards Lewes. It is dedicated to all those walkers, cyclists and environmentalists that I meet on the downs who are helping to keep this area beautiful and its nature thriving. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang and no frame needed. Comes with a certificate of authenticity from the artist

Journeys End
Description:
Journeys End is a very colourful original oil painting showing the light at the end of a vibrant autumn canal path. It is 36x30x1.5 inches. This magical landscape is semi abstract in style and catapults the viewer towards a turn in the path where the light is showing the exit of the dark tree tunnel by a river. The colours are rich bright autumn colours and the painting has a lot of impact due the edges being blurred which give it an energy and a promise that is quite unique. The inspiration for the painting was trying to show the feeling of having achieved a goal, the feeling of triumph and relief that you feel when a job has been done or when you have finally found the solution to a problem that has been on your mind for a very very long time. I hope it inspires others to keep going when things are tough. There is literally light at the end of the tunnel if you just keep going! Painted on deep edge canvas, edges painted to match the deep green, purple and blues of the edges. No frame needed, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity from the artist.

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.

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.

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.

Midsummer Jubilance
Description:
Midsummer Jubilance is a big joyful oil painting of poppies in a summer meadow under a tree. It is semi-abstract and slightly art nouveau in style. 40x40x1.5 inches. The intention of this painting was to show the way that nature competes, especially in summer, to get the attention of what it needs. In the case of poppies, it needs bees and other poppies, sunlight, water and possibly many other things. I love how in spring and summer this desire to be seen reaches a peak and have tried to show the sheer jubilance of a simple clump of summer poppies. The tree behind has its branches spread wide and reaching outwards which adds to the energy of the landscape. The location that sparked the idea for this painting was on some hills in Sussex where I sat under a tree last summer and simply enjoyed watching the flowers, smelling the scent of them and hearing the buzz of insects. It is a simple painting with a simple idea and is dedicated to everyone else who loves nature and seeks to keep it safe and thriving. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white, ready to hang and with certificate of authenticity from the artist.

In His Element
Description:
In His Element is a vibrant semi abstract oil painting of a peacock blending into in a magical bluebell wood. It is 36x30x1.5 inches. The peacock is looking to his right under the green spring woodland trees. His tail is spread out around him and is sinking into the lush carpet of bluebells. His colours match the scene beautifully which is why he is in his element. The painting style is semi abstract, slightly art nouveau and is depicted in an exuberant, loose and blurry way so that it seems to shimmer. The vertical layers and lines are like a curtain that present different aspects of the same scene simultaneously. The concept of the painting was simply the idea of seeing a peacock in a bluebell wood. I would like to see it! Peacocks, for me, represent something exotic and gorgeous and strange and bluebells are equally exotic and gorgeous and strange. Painted on 3D canvas, edges white, ready to hang, no frame needed.
