6. Recurring Themes/Styles
High Street, Newington, 1920s
I’m still building up this series of posterised paintings of Newington. Today I painted a scene on the A2 from the 1920s. The colour scheme is the...
The Former George Inn, Newington
Next up in this series of posterised paintings is one on the green colour scheme, with layers of transparent yellow, cerulean blue and French...
St. Mary The Virgin Church, Newington
Here we go. Number five in a collection of at least seven, probably nine, posterised paintings of Newington. Today I've finally bitten the bullet...

I bumped into the local vicar yesterday. He conformed that I'm invited to have a stand selling paintings at a Newington garden party at Newington...
Two Kiln Oast, Newington
After a day off, I'm back to building a collection of paintings of Newington. Today I picked out a converted oast house next to the church. ...
Mings Chinese Takeaway, Newington
Another Newington landscape tidy and once again it's using the Notanizer app. Today it's Mings Chinese Takeaway and I've painted it using the...

The Transfer
Today's painting is based on a photo taken by an old friend Olly while (I believe) on holiday in Portugal. He said it had an Edward Hopper feel to...

The One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest Collection
And here's the full collection. Wow! This is exactly what I wanted and more. The monotone paintings all look incomplete and yet when put...
Charlie Cheswick
And finally we have Charlie Cheswick, played by Sydney Lassick. This was the portrait I've been most looking forward to doing. Seeing this photo...
Dale Harding
Nearly there now. Number seven in the collection is Dale Harding, played by William Redfield. A decent enough likeness but quite a boring...
Bruce Frederickson

Chief Bromden
I don't normally do this but I've done a third marker painting in a day. This is The Chief, played by Will Sampson. He seemed the character most...
Martini
Fourth up is Martini (I can't find his first name) played by Danny DeVito. This film is just packed with names. I've done Martini in purple just...
