Exhibition at Juicy Beetroot in Fremantle - on now!

I'm back in Fremantle and have got an abstract art exhibition at Juicy Beetroot. I'm calling it a 'No studio sale' - as I don't have a studio at the moment. This means I have nowhere to keep my art … apart from the spare bedroom, which stops people coming to stay with me. Some might say this is a good thing, but I like seeing my far-flung friends, so I've reduced my paintings by up to 20% less than usual.   
So if you're in Fremantle on a weekday lunch time, drop into Juicy Beetroot and pick up a bargain while you can – and help me reclaim my spare bedroom!

Finger Stone (141)

I’ve recently spent six months based in the UK. I took lots of art projects to do while I was there, but never seemed to get time.

This painting of the Finger Stone, in the Staffordshire part of the Peak District National Park, is my latest art work. I actually started it a while ago on a previous visit to the UK. I painted it on black paper and thought it needed a lot more work, but when I looked at it again I realised that the black paper showing through adds to the broodiness of the subject. All it took to finish it off was to crop the bottom off as that wasn’t finished and didn’t add to the composition.

I’m happy with the result and think it’s looser than my usual work. I hope you like it too.
