FROM MY WINDOW

I began this collection of abstracted landscapes during the first Covid lockdown, when international travel was banned. Social media became overrun with photos of beautiful locations as “staycations” were the only option for us all to have any kind of holiday. I kept looking at those images of meadows, coastlines, beaches, mountains, sky & sunsets, and thought I could reinterpret them in my own style.

Whilst these paintings look very simple, choosing colours to represent the different elements of a particular landscape is critical, and so is ensuring the panels of colour are crisp.

Whilst the word abstract literally means removed from reality, these paintings do make reference to all the wonderful places that surround us.

If you have a photo of a favourite or special location, and you’d love my interpretation of it, I’d be very happy to discuss it with you.
