Posterised Style
Steve “The Colonel” Cropper
I saw something on the telly late at night last week. And then it was on again the following night so I watched it again. I sat there frustrated...
Phil Lesh
I do enjoy listening to the Grateful Dead while painting. And their music comes through in my artwork while they're playing. I loosen up and I jam...
Gary Delaney
I’ve painted quite a few comedians this year. And in each case it was the face that drew me in. Comedians tend to have faces that make great...
Jimmy Carr
Ever since I used dot cards to come up with patchwork portraits of Salvador Dali, Roger Waters and Sir Geoff Hurst, I've been thinking about doing...
Monty Panesar On Mastermind
Today's idea came from a YouTube video over breakfast the other day. It was a video of the ten most embarrassing celebrity appearances on quiz...
Henry Winter + Johnny Winter = Pi/2

Miss Magnolia Muse

Bunnahabhain Distillery
I'm still making my way through my birthday presents but it isn't new art gear today: it's a new malt. An 18 year old Bunnahabhain from Islay...
And, By The Way, Which One Is Pink?
With there still being a bit of paint left on the Schmincke dot card, I thought I'd have another go at an abstract portrait rather than leave it...
Ilad Rodavlas
And here's the companion piece to Salvador Dali, painted in parallel. It follows pretty well the same method, the only three differences being...
Salvador Dali
So here's what I did with that Schmincke dot card. I quite fancied doing a portrait, so looked around for a simple portrait of a colourful...
Freebird!
This one's been coming for a while. It's a portrait of Allen Collins and Gary Rossington, two of the founder members of Lynyrd Skynyrd and I'm...
Series Of Posterised Paintings Of Newington
So, yeah, the local vicar asked me a few weeks go whether I'd be interesting in setting up a stand at the Newington garden party on 24 August,...
Station Road, Newington
And here's the last of my series of nine posterised paintings of Newington. It's based on a really old photo of Station Road, probably predating...
Newington Pelican Crossing
Back to the real business today and it's the eighth of my nine posterised. Newington landscapes. I'm now on to the two colour schemes that are the...
