Watercolour manipulated on computer

Overwhelmed by the tragic Spanair aircrash, my thoughts turned to all the people still waiting for their lost ones to be returned to their final resting place. The sadness of it all and my own feelings of this sad event, caused me to create this piece as my own tribute,to the pain and suffering of those touched by this terrible accident.

I will admit that I have been suffering a creative block and hopefully now I am emerging, too many things to do at this moment. But I am sure we all know that feeling in one way or another.

I present to you a small black and white design I did for someone, it was part of a triptych and quite plain. representing the moon phases over a month.

charcoal and acrylic

Lost for inspiration, I took a drive to the volcanoes, where with a struggle I managed to make this piece from several sketches taken there.

It wasn¨t a good piece , as is anything produced in an inspirational block, but it was somethng that has since been destroyed. Sometimes the lack of inspiration is daunting, for me its better not to produce than produce second rate ideas

Neurons

Sorry the incorrect picture was pasted here in error,the original will be uploaded shortly

I love to work in black and white sometimes, its so versatile.

This picture came about when I was delving for ideas for a set of 3 black and white canvases someone has ordered from me.

This is not one of them,

but grew whilst searching ideas,

it´s called neurons as it developed straight from the head!

Television

TELEVISION

Mixed Media

2´x 1´

Ah, the machine that change our lives. The instrument of time and at times lies & fantasy.

The colour portrays the security and need for ones television. The comfort zone, the soap opera,´what is happening in the outside world. The reliance on the "Box" that may lead us into the "twilight zone" leaving behind life as it is.

Acrylic on Board (2´x1´)

Having been a little inactive, the sun arrived and lit my inspiration. The picture is based on warm and tender thoughts. I kind of dedicate this to HH Dalai Llama, as I have been reading about and watching him on the television.Now I am not sure whether it was the sun or he that insired me. Maybe they are one of the same.
