About the Item

This painting was started with a series of small sketches made in Zante, Greece in October this year. The view is from the swim up pool in the hotel, in the afternoon the sun cast shadows across the fields . I love the contrast of the green countryside and the red terracotta roofs . It was completed several weeks later in my south Devon studio .

I spent ten years living near to the Brecons Beacons and painting using a tent as a studio in all seasons. For over thirteen years I was an artist in residence in a cottage on the end of Cape Cornwall overlooking the Brisons at different times of the year. Therefore, I have a vast amount of passion for the skies, sea and mountains which I love to involve within my paintings. My recent works have been developed from these roots and are becoming much more abstract, focusing on 'the essence of place' through the colours I use and emotions I have created. I work mainly in oils, acrylic and mixed media, sometimes adding unique materials such as sand, carborundum, iron fillings and many other products I feel the work dictates."
