This page contains two collections of my work.  First my abstract designs hand painted by me mixing cyan, yellow and magenta acrylic paints.  Second is a small selection of my landscape images created by blending of my photographic images with my abstract artwork using digital techniques.  More of these can be seen at my shop in Stockport.  Information on how to buy these as prints and canvasses can be found at the end of this page.

ABSTRACT ARTWORK

My abstract artwork colour and shape is created on the substrate, no shades are pre-mixed.  The way I spread the three colours (sometimes using a little white) depends on the effect I am trying to achieve in my mind’s eye. It never ceases to amaze me how the three colours blend as I combine them with all sorts of implements – palette knives, brushes, sponges, my fingers, even combs!  The colours flow and ebb naturally and organically, creating an effect which is both dramatically striking and easy on the eye at the same time.  I present each design here as I believe it is viewed best, in a landscape or portrait format; but the choice is yours! Each design has a number; I don’t name them so you can decide what they say to you.

LANDSCAPES

My landscapes collection combines my love of photography and my Photoshop skills with my passion for colour. I created these images through using digital methods to blend the photorealistic detail of buildings, people, animals and scenery with washes of colour from the image itself and sometimes with my own abstract art originally created with acrylics and also inks. As with my abstract art, I look for a balance of detail, symmetry and colour when creating each piece and I delight in bringing out the beauty in them.  Having lived in Stockport for 30 years, and with my art shop inside the historic Stockport Market Hall, much of my work in this collection features local landmarks.
