Sunset Shore

This abstract piece steps away from my usual style. I felt compelled to explore something different. It is a deliberate departure, allowing me to embrace boldness, spontaneity, and a fresh visual language that challenges both my process and perspective.
A bold red and orange sky stretches across the canvas, fading into softer peach and yellow tones near the horizon. Below, blue-green waves roll toward a light sandy beach, highlighted with white brushstrokes that suggest foam and movement. Two small sailboats sit in the distance, adding scale and a quiet focal point. The painting contrasts the intense warmth of the sky with the cool calm of the water, capturing a peaceful moment at sunset.

My True Love.
Generally my style of art is Representational – realistic stuff, anything that has a strong recognisable subject. Sometimes however I abandon my fine art lured by my previous life as a graphic designer and momentarily I'm overcome and revert to the use of minimalist shapes, images and bright colours.
Being an impatient individual, I prefer to work with acrylics rather than other mediums because of their quick drying time. This allows me the flexibility to make mistakes, knowing that I'm able to quickly correct and paint over them.
As an artist I usually I start with a pencil sketch in my painting diary. I don't necessarily paint it straight away, but often visit the diary as inspiration for future work. My true love is the challenge of capturing the the things and sights that have inspired me on my travels around and about.
