Spring Wood

Part Plein Air, part studio, acrylic, approx 30cm by 25cm. Basic composition based on thirds, then an awful mess inbetween. This should be seen large scale to "get it".

Porthgain

This was partly Plein Air and partly studio. I wanted to kind of marry calligraphic brush strokes to dynamic landscape forms. So I saw the grass clifftop as blancmange cascading over the fingers of rock that make up the cliffs. Nothing much considered or detatched about this way of painting, but its kind of invigorating. Could have abstracted it further, but thought I,d quit whilst I was ahead.
