Katie Oil 14" x 13"


I have been internet-less for 4 weeks, so it is good to be back, it's like an old friend! Now, you would think that I would have about 28 paintings to post. Not so. I did find that without the incentive to post, I didn't do any small paintings. Shame on me. I have been working on a couple of larger ones which are not finished yet and I have decided not to post them until they are. Probably because they are not going according to plan!

Anyway, I finished this picture of Kate, yesterday. It was started at the last life drawing session at Hertford Art Society and after watching David R Darrow in the morning I thought I would have a go a la David. I very soon got fed up with being meticulous about every detail, the evidence of which can be seen on the right hand bottom corner of the painting. I have therefore discovered that I am a 'slap it on and hope for the best' merchant, which will have to stop if I want to achieve my goals.








If you would like to purchase this painting for 125GBP (unless otherwise stated) please email me.
