After the Rain

This entry shows that I am working more on the style of painted collage and here are some examples where I have painted over collaged pieces to give a multi-layered effect.




'After the Rain' - For Sale - £50
This one was inspirated by the effect of what would happen if my work was left out in the rain. The background are examples of pictures taken with a 35mm camera.


'Christmas Nights' - For Sale - £50
This piece has been produced for an exhibition at Christmas in a local church. The colours are meant to be very Christmassy and represent snow and deep reds.



'Comfort Zone' - For Sale - £50
Described by my girlfriend, Kerry as looking like a comfort blanket. This was a chance to see what would happen if I got away from using the usual colours in my art and I am very pleased with the results.

'Fireworks' - For Sale - £40
Another camera book collaged piece about November 5th. The green is the same as used in 'Green Village Fantasy'


'Jazz City' - For Sale - £75
The largest piece so far, this time with black and white pictured that have been left mainly unpainted to show that the theme is about Jazz, cafes and musicians.



'Spanish Carnival' - For Sale - £45
Another attempt to keep things simple and the colouring was dictated by a hot day in Spain.



'Summer City' - For Sale - £50
Another large piece that reflects the city in the middle of August.



'Theme from Mexico' - For Sale - £40
This is inspired by Kandinsky and is an attempt to get away from the boxes of previous pieces.
