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...
New Court, Christ’s College, Cambridge

The Hills Are Alive

Broken

Tombstone

The Searchers

Random Nebula

Abstract
29 June 2018 And now a genuine abstract. What can I say about this one? I separated the paper out into sections using masking tape. It made the...
Lightning Over Henley-On-Thames
6 June 2018 Some more lightning, this time over Henley-On-Thames. You can probably tell that this painting's been cropped. There was a car and...
Icebergs Off Newfoundland
6 June 2018 There's a village somewhere in Newfoundland that enjoys the sight every year of all these huge icebergs floating slowly past. It...
