Paintings
Having quite a lot of difficulty with this one, but I think I'm getting somewhere now. It's a kind of twin to this one (below), which I started in a slightly different way, but which has kept some of the same low-key colour range that I used previously.
They are both exactly the same size and I stretched them at the same time, late last year.
Still trying to get the hang of these acrylics, but yesterday I made some real progress with this small painting. Its hard to know whether this would appreciate some further working, which I haven't yet mastered in this medium, but I kind of like it just as it is.
Still working on that last rather grey painting, but also branching out in some small sketches, and one larger work which is an older one left at a deliberately ambiguous stage, from 2008.
Here are some of the sketches (all done, unusually for me, in acrylics):
This is the larger painting I'm working on, with the original version above (all acrylic) and the latest version below (oils over acrylic). This is still in progress.
This painting is the same one that I mentioned in the last post of 2025 and it is still in progress. Though slow, I'm happy with the way it is going.
