A beautiful, commissioned painting of a ‘Sleeper’. I love working with this series.
Next week I’m starting a portrait of someone awake!! How unusual!!

Several large paintings on easels in an artist’s studio. A landscape, a large spiral painting with a moon as it’s focal point. And a sleeping figure. The room has mural covered walls, sky with a giant pomegranate exploding.
Three paintings waiting to be delivered to their new homes!! One commission, one sold in a charity auction and one recently sold from my studio!
Busy times!!!

Many thanks for following me back too!
I’m pretty new to BlueSky and it’s taken a little while to find works that inspire me.
I’m glad to have found yours.
Have a beautiful day!
Such absolutely beautiful work!
A digital painting of the actor and musician, Eugene Gilfedder by Billy Shannon. Eugene is looking to the left, holding a glass of champagne, and is deep in conversation. There’s an overlay of conversational fragments relating to the nature of consciousness.
‘Conversations with Eugene’ is a digital portrait of my good friend Eugene Gilfedder, made a couple of years ago. Our 40 year friendship has been full of fascinating conversations and fun.
Only 1 is left of the edition of 3, but I’ll probably keep it.

An intersection of the perception of light and time.
Listening to Carlo Rovelli talk on the physics and philosophy of time, while I work this morning

Very beautiful work. Peaceful and reflective…
A view of Pink Lake from a sheltered section of the footpath. The lake, calm after a rainfall, perfectly mirrors its densely wooded shoreline. The evergreen tree canopy is visible in the foreground.
Final varnish applied to a golden painting. Light reflecting off the surface, showing other areas of the painting studio
Final layers and varnish on this commissioned painting this morning. It was such a lovely process to create this work!

Playing with pretend settings for my work.
The Rose Series explores the impermanence of roses, and the deep, fleeting joy we feel in their presence.
A meditation on beauty and transience

Early morning Armenian coffee made in a haz e wakes me up!
Emotional painting of a woman sleeping. Multi-imaged as she rolls around in her sleep. Painted in warm tones, gold and bronze. A square format, acrylic on canvas, though the layers make it seem like an oil painting.
Two small rose paintings. More about the ‘breath’ of roses rather than the form. One painting in reds and golds the other a dark red rose floating out from a black background
Early mornings in my studio usually start with a jazve coffee.
Here are some commissioned works and one for a small show that I’m working on.
The ‘Sleep’ commission is part of a series of works that’s been going for 10 years.
