Studio Walls March

admin — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 13:01:41 +0000

Here are a selection of recent figurative paintings connected to local Bristol allotments and the surrounding countryside. The work is currently on show at Arkadia, a beautiful gallery in Dunster, for their spring show “Bird Scapes” alongside work by Mary Sumner, Angela Harding and Derek Richards. The show runs until 9th June. Further details about the work can be found at www.arkadia-online.co.uk

In these abstract paintings I’ve been exploring the layering of paint, colour and composition. The painting on the bottom right stands aside from the other three, and I feel certain I’ll be exploring both avenues over the next few months. Dimensions 50cm x 50cm. acrylic on panel.

….Small things like this are helping to feed my studio time at the moment.

With January now drawing to a close I decided it would be worth making a series of monthly posts looking at work in progress on the studio walls. The shots here show a selection of paintings which I’ve been returning to over the past few weeks.

New Project Samples

admin — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 16:29:01 +0000

I’ve been commissioned to produce two windows for the Weston-Super-Mare General Hospital A / E dept. Early in the process the League of Friends expressed a desire to capture something of the Weston sea front, so I teamed up with my friend and photographer Geraint Davies for a mornings shoot. I’m making the work using digital film on glass which suits the project brief perfectly. Today it was great to receive the first set of samples, one of which is shown here.

Salisbury Children’s Hospital Update

My part in this project was completed some four months ago and has been well received and signed off. Frustratingly the architect and contractors are still on site snagging which means the play deck is still a construction site, the children can not access a fantastic facility and I’m unable to take good photographs of the finished glass. I visited last week to shoot the play deck from a new angle and record the adjacent corridor windows as a portfolio stop gap.

Children’s Unit Play Deck

admin — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 21:04:02 +0000

Today I visited the new Children’s Unit at Salisbury District Hospital to see my glass panels – newly installed at the weekend. The upper level of the exterior play deck is accessible from the children’s ward and provides an exciting environment for children to explore and play. I’ve really enjoyed working on this project with ArtCare over the last year and have to commend them for the number of other high quality art commissions they are managing here – all making a great difference to the unit. My part in the project will see completion soon when the second phase corridor glazing goes in.
