Inspired by an image from the beautiful book ‘Shelter From The Storm’ - The story of New Zealand backcountry huts’ by Shaun Barnett, Rob Brown and Georg Spearpoint.
Thick oil pastel on thick brown card.
……

I’ve relished this move to oil pastels after feeling a stagnation in my progress with oil painting. The pastels have allowed me to get closer to how I want to interpret landscapes - gestural, painterly, loose-ish and friendly.

While I am still in the early stages of my experimentation here, I want to make available the favourites that rise to the top of my hours of practice.
These are priced according to both their size and my feelings on them as I know I will continue to learn and change!
Prices will continue to change as I progress in this adventure.

From my home to yours,
