The Pleasure is to Play.  a small retrospective

A fantastic quote by Lemmy from Motothead.

For the last 10 years I have shown paintings and prints, in public spaces around the North and Scotland.

I have shown work up and down the Eastcoast mainline in waiting rooms and lounges from Edinburgh to Leeds. In beautiful  listed buildings in Newcastle.  Comedy clubs and bars.  In a fine Cathedral and a beautiful, Victorian  park.

The Pleasure is to Play is a small retrospective of paintings and prints from these shows., Held at the lovely Peoples Theatre Gallery, Newcastle.   Oct-Dec. 2023

Geraniums - chosen for their vibrant red colour. A drawing, then a painting of the poor display in the containers, in my garden.

The Ozone Smells Faintly of Geraniums. is a quote from QI.

They have a particular and memorable smell.

vestiges of endlessly moving prospects  cloud paintings


 

     is a small body of drawings, oil paintings, transparency plates and now prints

     the title is an adaptation of Sir James Huttons' description of geological time, formed in the late 18th century, as he viewed the rock formations of Siccar Point Edinburgh;  

 

    'No vestige of a beginning....no prospect of an end.'

flowers

these paintings  have as much to do with repetition as they do flowers. Repetition necessary in creation
