"MIREIA"

"MIREIA", originally uploaded by "El Joven".

I am thinking about getting back to painting.

Hanging on the wall

On the brick wall beside the fireplace hang the three small canvases and two wooden creatures, a white rabbit and a bird.

Today we de-install the exhibition. It has all gone quickly and without hassle.

From setting up to all finished (almost)

From beginning to end, tomorrow Dogs & Hares draws to a close.

More from the studio

A recent oil painting completed.

My two-person exhibition with Mary draws nearer and I am working in the studio to get everything finished in time for June the 20th.

Works in Progress

Taken on a grey day in my studio, here are three works in progress.

Thanks for the mention.

A rabbit joins the group

A rabbit (still in need of a final coat of varnish) joins the group.

These works are for a two person exhibition with Mary Gray coming up mid year.

Back to the studio I go.

from the studio

A recent commission for a friend... oil on canvas, 2007.

Interior landscapes (details of)

Those long promised photos from Interior landscapes... here they are. A small, detailed glimpse at the work as it hung on the wall.









So many canvases, so many chairs, so many vases... and lots of red and white stripes - everywhere. Red and white on both my work and Mary's.

A few more? Okay... I'll happily oblige. More photos taken just moments before the exhibition was dismantled. Before canvases sold went to new homes, and those unsold were wrapped up and packed in the car.



(With MG's two canvases above and my two below.)

Back to the drawing board... literally.

The beginning

Hello & welcome to my brand new little blog, with it's name taken from a favourite sign that hangs on the outside wall to my garden studio... a place for me to put all my recent icons, paintings, thoughts, sights and such.

You can also check out my web site over here, whilst I figure out how to drive this thing.

My recent work can be seen here AND some of my most recent icon portraits over this way
