Small Objects of Desire

This new online exhibition concentrates on small, intimate paintings and I've called it, perhaps a bit presumptuously, ' Small objects of Desire '

Like a Faberge egg, or a Tiffany brooch, small, complex artworks can have the power to arouse in us a strong desire to possess them.

Well, that's the theory anyway, I will soon find out if it's true or not!

I know, as far as my own work is concerned, that I put as much thought and effort into my small paintings as any of the bigger pieces.

In fact, sometimes the smaller works have a spontaneity or 'va va voom' which can be hard to replicate in larger work.

Anyone who had attended one of my workshops or presentations will know that my career as a 'Gallery Artist' began with small, postcard size paintings, and I am enjoying, once again, working at that scale.

I hope you enjoy this latest collection of my paintings and that having looked at all the work, you feel at least a little of that desire.
