The new PMP magazine is out now and can be viewed and downloaded here: http://issuu.com/paintmyphoto/docs/newsletter_winter_2014/1
My article is all about making abstracts from photo reference, and starts on page 33.
I hope you enjoy it.

Wielding the knife

More palette knife...
This one is called "A Country Post" and is based on a small section of a lovely photo "A Post in The Country", shared by Steve Lyddon. 
You can see more landscapes under the "Land" tab on the menu bar above.

Getting the knives out.

More palette knife paintings this week...

With the Rotary art show "reading Art Exhibition" arriving this weekend, I had some earlier palette knife works framed last week at Ralph Spearpoint Framing in Reading.  He did a lovely job and I liked them so much that I decided to make some more right away.

All of these paintings are acrylic on 500gsm Hannemuhle paper, 30cm x 40cm.

New Work

I've just finished this piece..
It's acrylic on box canvas 30" x 20" (76cm x 50cm approx)

It's worked on the principle of laying down colour so that adjoining sections harmonise in hue or tone or both.
