Sunflower Recollection - Palette Knife

This painting started life, like this!
But I looked at it and it just didnt feel right
I wanted to create something light, loose and jolly

Out came the palette knives!

Sunflowers always make me recall long drives through the french countryside
but also fond memories of people and special friendships.






I feel I have hit my goal with this painting joyful yet loose with vibrant hues
of yellows and blues stir the happy emotions

Butterfly Love Story


Butterfly Love Story

I read a epic romance novel and was so sad when it came to a end, the book was tatty, it had been
read so many times before but I wanted to some how keep those special
pages with poems and beautiful words, making them be seen and enjoyed more.

I came up with this mixed media concept, I have always enjoyed adding news paper
clippings to canvas ( City news, Paper rush, Words of time)

22" x 22" Square on deep profile canvas
Pasted on before varnishing

Close up of words


There are many layers to this painting, before and after varnishing

In Natural light

Without flash in dark light
