Brooklyn blues, new mixed media painting

Happy 2013!

I'm back from a bit of a Blogger break, can't believe its been so long since my last post.

Anyway here is the finished mixed media painting that my last post showed the start of:


Brooklyn Blues
Mixed Media on canvas
80x60cm

There was a fair bit of collage and layering of textures to get to this point.  There's lots of subtle relevant inclusions as well that hopefully will mean there's a lot of looking longevity!  My research on New York style building made me realise I'd picked architecture with LOTS of windows, phew!

 This painting now has a new home in my brother's music room and thankfully he was really happy with the way it turned out

Setting out




Setting out
15x12 inches
Mixed media on canvas

This one is inspired by the many beautiful harbour/fishing villages on the East Coast of Scotland, Eyemouth, Dunbar, Crail etc.

I've used collage, Inks, Texture gels, Acrylic and oil pastels to create this.

A moment of pure bliss

mixed media of canvas
8x8 inches

This was a really fun painting to do. Lots of gold bling in there makes it very decorative, Klimt wouuld be pleased!

There is collage elements that are then painted over with acrylics, inks and oil pastels.
