Lots of layers. Lots of struggling. Not entirely happy with the paint surface.

‘Bray Head Late Evening’
Plein air oil on board.

My mate Hugh again. I painted this in a different style, quite loosely by eye without a grid. As a result it has a life of its own, more of a character or carricature. Lots of layers.

‘The Last Cream Donut’

Oil on Board.

26x25cm.

My first finished painting since the still life workshop with Conor Walton. This composition and some of the techniques are lifted straight from his toolbox. I hope to integrate what I have learned  into my own style in the coming months.

I attempted to paint Hugh and Donna Marie. Alas, I gave her a mauling that was irredeemable so it’s Hugh by himself. Very hard to paint accureately this small…if an eye is off by a millimetre the whole face is thrown.
