Calla Lilies II – White Callas on a Silver-Gold Ground An elegant floral still life: two white calla lilies on tall dark wiry stems stand before a heavily textured silver-gold ground. The upper, larger one opens its trumpet-shaped bloom downward to the left, revealing an orange-red spadix; the lower, smaller […]

Bouquet IV – an airier bouquet in warm pottery Painting on canvas opens the bouquet out until the ground shows between the heads and every flower gets its own space: abstract painting in everything but the subject, because what the eye actually reads is the interval between raised shapes. The […]

Time on the Wall – a cream wall over a black band Abstract painting renders almost the whole canvas as a smoothed cream and ivory plane and closes it along the lower edge with a narrow black band: painting on canvas built on a deliberately extreme proportion. Technique and texture […]

Mosaic of Trees – two trees in tiled squares A square composition – two mosaic trees of square knife tiles lean toward each other, their crowns interweaving into a shared arch overhead, and below them a colour shore band and a pale mosaic reflection: the left trunk rises at a […]

Rainbow Tree – a tree of life in the spectrum A panorama – a tree of life with a rainbow canopy of petal impasto dabs spanning the full width on a warm cream ground threaded with falling colour drips: the spectral range runs left to right – violet at the […]

ZEN Stones – Balance That Calms the Gaze A hyperrealistic still life of perfect peace: on a warm grey-beige background stands a precisely balanced cairn of eight stones, its soft shadow falling into the lower left corner. The painting is museum-quiet – a meditation in the colour of stone. Technique […]

Colour Diagonals – crossing strokes across the canvas A panorama of crossing diagonal stroke bundles – maroon-red, orange-gold, blue and black – sweeping edge to edge over a white-cream ground shaded grey at the upper right: a maroon-red bundle descends from the upper left toward the centre, a broad orange-gold […]

Blue and Sand – an architectural patchwork under coarse stucco An architectural patchwork of steel-blue and sand plaster rectangles under coarse stucco, scuffed with charcoal traces – a white block grounds the lower right: a dark steel-blue rectangle is upper left with a sooty seam along its base, and a […]

Golden Reflections – rows of gold dots over water A panorama – rows of round gold, copper and brown dots march across the middle between a silver-white impasto sky and a mint-teal water zone with reflections: vertical dots in gold, copper, chestnut and white are densely packed into three or […]

Blue Shadows – two ovals on cream plaster Two soft blue-grey oval shadows breathing on warm cream plaster – nothing else, the quietest piece of the series: the large oval stands left of centre, nearly full height, gently tilted, its foot fading out at the bottom edge. Technique & Texture […]

Geometric Intersection – a black panel and timber beams A black left panel and a warm grey field crossed by tan-ochre beams – one T-intersection of timber-like strokes with a mid-band of knife tiles: a deep black panel fills the left third at full height, and along its edge stand […]
