Three Days Of Snow
Back to painting again today and, for reasons that will become apparent, I wanted to get in some practice at snow paintings. So I looked through...
Stephen Hawking
After John Paul Jones came out so well a couple of weeks ago, I wanted to have another go at drawing a portrait with markers by concentrating on...
Sedona, Arizona
Yesterday's High Noon painting was a bit lacking in colour for one of my creations, so I thought I'd do something colourful today: a three colour...
One For The Bin
All my artwork, good or bad, goes up on this website. That's why I'm showing you this abomination. I saw a Jean Lurssen video this morning in...
Annual Self Portrait 2020
I fancied another go with the inktense pencils but, rather than doing another female nude, thought I'd have a go at a self portrait. And,...
Winter Is Coming
I thought I'd have another go at turning an abstract underpainting into something recognisable. This time, though, I made three changes. The...
Rob Key

Stephen Hawking Reading The Guardian
Ok. Time to try out the inktense pencils properly. I had two gos at doing a painting of a young Stephen Hawking reading The Guardian. The idea...
Archway Into St Michael’s & All Saints Church, Hartlip
Another bit of plein air painting and this time it's my local church in Hartlip. Just like last time, it's in the key of purple cool, made up of...
Stockbury Church
Time for a new experience. To get some practice in (just in case I make it on to Landscape Artist Of The Year as a wildcard) I thought I'd better...
Christ’s College, Cambridge
I've still not given up hope of being invited into Sky Landscape Artist Of The Year as a wildcard, so with that competition likely to be focused on...
Lancashire Sunset
Today's painting was inspired by a photo by a guy called Brandon Lee Keefe of a sunset from St Peter's Church in Hersham. I say inspired rather...
The Glamour Of The Snow
I thought a bit of watercolour painting was overdue, so I've been out there this morning running off this little number. The thunder started as I...
The Hidden Gorilla

461 Ocean Boulevard
Back out in the garden painting today and this is what I came up with. It's 461 Ocean Boulevard, the house that Eric Clapton lived in while...
