A collage of three acrylic paintings. A single level commercial street. A look of small town USA. Buildings are muted reds and browns, a rusted corrugated canopy runs along the entirety of the street. White clouds above and a grey road in the foreground. A sunset scene in a small town. Low rise commercial looking buildings either side of a road, drenched in a warm red glow. Telephone poles add a composition. Hills can be seen in the background. A two floor building with a retro hotel sign reading ‘Hotel Vegas’. Road in the foreground and a blue sky above.

A selection of my recent acrylic paintings. Connected by a calming stillness.

Minimal style photograph. Foreground a sign reading ‘TATTOO’, behind is an apartment block engulfed by a cloudless blue sky.

A cloudless blue sky is a great backdrop for minimal photography.

Acrylic painting of a launderette shopfront.

My Beautiful Launderette.

I loved the look of this vintage launderette in Saltaire, West Yorkshire. I thought the clutter of machinery, posters, and reflections in the large windows, would make for an interesting painting.
