There's something about just sitting and looking out at the garden watching the birds feed that inspired this work Blue Tit in Oils.
Suddenly i will get an urge to want to paint a set subject depending on what I'm doing at any given point, there is never a plan.
Pleased to say this work went to a lovely home of a bird watcher.

What a lovely landscape to be comissioned to paint, the client wanted the beauty, vastness and scale to be captured and i hope i managed to do it justice, i think so and pleased to report the client did too, it's currently in the studio gracing the walls drying.

A past SOLD piece which now proudly hangs in the customers home as shown, this was a few years ago and wanted to give the impression of a cold misty winter morning as the swan majestically comes into view.

Oil on Canvas

A break away from my usual wildlife subjects, this piece was created as a personal challenge: exploring an industrial landscape while drawing on my long-standing love of steam trains. It became a popular work at exhibitions, often sparking conversation, and now hangs in a private home, bringing joy to its owner.

A joy to paint, wanting to capture the power, size and gentle nature of these amazing creatures.

Wildlife was where I began, from the moment I was old enough to pick up a pencil. This fox was inspired by a fleeting encounter as it crossed the road, paused briefly to look back, and then disappeared on its way.
