Getting There




Hello again , I must apologise for the long delay in posting to this blog , something horrible had installed its self making it impossible to edit or post paintings.
I did not notice it until i tried to post a image around three weeks ago and its taken from then to now to get the problem sorted out , anyway hopefully its back to normal now.
I know January is nearly over but I must say "Happy New Year" to you, we have been snowed in over the holidays but to be honest it has not made much difference to my day to day existence as I have been working none stop on a new series of paintings to be published by Washington Green, the first of which will be released next month.
Although the paintings are not released yet the feed back so far is very positive indeed, Its been a long wait, I have been working for this event for many months now and will show some of the work here on the blog from late February.
The painting shown here is from last year "Getting There" I suppose there must be a little of how I feel at the moment in this piece but it depends on where "there" is !! The other is a recent Sketch of "Jack The Lad"

So great to see you are back and now I am looking forward to your February posts. I love this painting... the gesture of his gait and the handling of the negative space. And let's not forget the sketch- it is precious!

Oh how I have missed your glorious paintings...so good you are back...I presumed you were busy with new gallery stuff.
Jack, as always, is delightful and I adore 'Getting There', it's mystery intrigues. Someone asked me why on earth would I paint the back view of someone and people with no faces! I felt sad at what she misses!

I was wondering what had happened to you, glad you are back posting paintings again, love the painting and the sketch is sweet too.
