My Work

Most of my paintings are based on photographs I have taken of old boats in Cornwall's boatyards and on beaches. Peeling paint, scraped hulls, rusty rudders.  The more worn the better.  I try and recreate the photo using mainly acrylic paints and scraffito techniques, laying down multiple layers and scraping back.  Often the paintings turn out to look like landscapes with a horizon line.
