We're Not Here

This is a showcase of some of the changes that I have made in my style of art, and in some cases they are paintings and not collages. I have been experimenting with paint and collage so as to change the style, because of this I decided to see what it would look like without the collage and I was impressed enough to continue.



'Half a Church' - For Sale - £50
This is a typical collage in my style and it is a Christian Church. I liked the colours in the mosaic'd section and the fact that the church is at a strange angle.


'Green Village Fantasy' - For Sale - £55
A piece that has torn pieces of textured paper under the paint to give it an edge over a straight forward painted picture. This has since been damaged and has lost about a third of its length.

'Girl in a Jacket' - For Sale - £65
This was an image from a woman's magazine and the mosaic has been placed to give it an icon feel. The jacket that the girl is wearing was the reason for choosing this image to make into the iconic picture.


'We're Not Here' - For Sale - £65
Another painted collage piece and the title comes from the image in the top right hand corner. I love the colouring and the abstraction of the images.

'Mexico Nightfall' - For Sale - £45
This is not a collage, it is a painting on board and the first in a series about cities, this time Mexico City.



'Crowded City' - For Sale - £45
Another painted piece, this time with paint and pencil. It is a representation of a busy overcrowded city with lots of activity.

'Eye' -For Sale - £60
The ever present watching eye, this time of a fashion model but an image of big brother is watching you from windows, buses, CCTV and more. This is a collage with painted over view.



'Street' -For Sale - £35
A smaller piece this time to reflect the street in a busy city. Another painting without collage.



'Domino's Car Park' -For Sale - £45
Dominos like a Car Park. So I used both titles in one.



'Life of City' - For Sale - £60
This is another painted piece in the busy cities project and this time shows in abstract form the business of a busy city.



'Jungle' - For Sale - £70
Another abstract piece about the crowded Jungle and in its abstract form the colours and brightness of the Jungle at midday.
