Art Weekly 168 – Petals Underfoot

AW-168_PetalsUnderfoot
1
0th February 2016

You may have noticed I’ve been including the word ‘Underfoot’ in some of my new paintings just recently. This started way back in 2003 when I did an abstract painting from a photo I took of the ground in a thermal area in New Zealand. I loved the orange and creamy colours and various textures that I saw when I looked down to where I had placed my feet …. hence ‘underfoot! Admittedly, I have for some time, taken photos of the ground, along with rocks, rust and peeling paint – odd I know!  Anyway, this little one was taken outside our apartment over the summer when the good old Greek wind had left me a nice pile of petals and leaves, just waiting to be painted!

A Painting A Week No 121 – Languedoc Harvest

AW-121_Languedoc-Harvest

For Sale – 11th February 2013 –

Another appropriate painting this week as we’re here in the Languedoc again. There’re no golden leaves left on the grapes now, but the countryside is still looking beautiful with its rows of bare vines, the golden sandy soil, and the huge skies.  We’re staying with friends in the lovely village of Magalas, and seem to be spending an awful lot of time driving along what I always think of as ‘Napoleon’s French roads’! – long and straight and lined on either side with rows of bare plain trees, their silver trunks sparkling in the winter light.
