Lazy Sunday afternoons and all things Beatles influenced...

Commission piece: Belle from Beauty and the Beast

Charcoal on Bristol mounted on board

Sometimes I come home and I have to express myself, for better or worse. I am an outsider both in art and in my personal life. Nature of my illness.

I tried to use my imagination for this, but I had to fall back on photo reference, to finish it. THe problem with the composition is I did not use a background colour. I did this about 3 years ago. Their are mountains in the background.

I think I will move onto the face next, as the face is by far the hardest element in the figure to get right.

When you are in this forest, you are lost, until the sun rises again to show the path out of madness. This was one of the first large paintings, that I completed. Its a strange thing because when I was painting it, i distorted the horizon line.The line should be level by right.

I am gaining an interest in figure drawing from the imagination. Drawing a figure is like craving a away at a block of granit. You make many atempts to get the figure right.

An old lime kilin.These were used to make fertiliser for farming, before the introduction of chemical fertilisers. They made lime out of burnt charcoal.They are not used any more.

I did these a long time ago. Some of the first portraits I ever did.The origionals that I used for reference are by an Italian artist.

A study I did a long time ago.

I was inspired to do this after seeing a work in a Dk art book.This is about the relationship I had in the past with my doctors. Today, I have moved past the fighting and I work with these people.

The battering of the sea off of a lighthouse is about my own mental health problems.

A Pen and Ink portrait I did a long time ago.

Man compared to nature. Inspired from the Irish countryside.

The future hope of love for my troubled parents.

Inspired by the landscape of Cars Land and named for the Cozy Cone Hotel. If you now, you know.

Watercolor background with Ink pen. I had difficulty with the proportions.

Been aching to draw one of these for a while now! Can’t knock goblin sharks, that’s for sure.

Follow the desires of His heart and His message of love will flow through.

Image from my Splash Series, created with the Procreate app, using the symmetry tool.

Based on a photograph of a hibiscus flower enjoying its last day in the garden before being brought back home before the Canadian fall and winter. I imported the photo in Procreate and the rest is history.

Keeping things together and setting records straight.
