New Paintings

Back in Brighton, back to work.

It's good to be here, and in the studio but must admit I miss the country (but not the madness).

It feels like a funny time to be started new work... would much prefer to be in hibernation. At the moment I'm painting on cheap, nasty pre-stretched/primed canvas which is doing strange things to the paint. It repels, rather than holds which is causing problems re: building layers... I am viewing these as oil sketches in preparation for the next series based on the Burren.

Some cow arses for you....
