Found this image in photos from 2012. Absolutely can't remember if it had a title... think it was studio play trying to shake myself up...

Back in my former life as a #lecturer I delivered this #paintingworkshop to 1st year students countless times. It is only now that I reflect upon it and employ it myself. This #wip will eventually span 16 canvases and be an enlarged version of an A4 source in 2 duotone combinations

#airbrushpainting gives a larger painting so much differing #punctum , got to love it. #art #painting #opulence

I never thought I would have to ask this fundamental question of myself in my 50's but since I started this reflective project a couple of months ago it has popped up a few times. I'm listening to my #subconscious and exploring #drives and #needs

This #painting is a little similar to a piece by #dekooning I gladly admit. So, as well as an abstract painting inspired by studio mess, I also seem to #ape famous #art now and again too... A pattern is forming it seems in this examination of practice...more soon

Every 4th or 5th #painting I make has to be composed based on an #accident spotted somewhere in the #studio. Some #juxtaposition of #paintdaubs. Sometimes it works out. I'm always looking for an #art that feels credible or #resonates somehow

One way my #neurodivergence manifests is via obsession/repetition. My #painting practice allows repetitions of the same #image but in different application techniques. I've learnt to embrace this act...

I know where temptation lies...was the #velvetunderground lyrics playing at the time of writing. Interesting because I was thinking about #knowledge of #painting and whether or not I know too much to be able to edit this practice...

Today's studio output #sketch on #canvas
I used to use this activity in #teachingpainting sessions...I like to call it #toomuchpaint or #wetonwet. I'm busy thinking about my work in terms of what stays, goes and comes in...
This was made just before the holidays, so the last #painting of 2024. Untitled 40x30cm #oilandacrylic. I got some funding for research and development from #creativescotland. Been thinking a lot about what to do and where to go with the painting...or accept this is it's thing... #discuss...?

A painting of a small cute puppy and even smaller kitten. Painting in a soft focus style. The two characters look as though they may be shaking hands together. It seems that they might be standing on a reflective surface as their reflection stretches out Infront and below them. The Painting style changes in the reflection to make the characters look more abstract and less detailed...more gestural.
