A couple of large canvases for sale.

The 11th Feb 2016- UPDATE: The whale painting has now sold.

Since I painted these two canvases in 2014 for The Heseltine Gallery's "Flow State" exhibition with Truro School, they have hung on the walls of the studio and my house.

I don't really want to part with them as I normally paint large murals that I could't keep if I wanted to. However, I need the wall space for current projects and I'd rather these were being enjoyed than being kept in storage.

On 120x100cm box canvases, painted in acrylic and spray paint, these two paintings have a presence in any sized room, much like one of my murals, except these can be moved.

The Zen Boardroom

The brief: "Being mindful of the chaos outside as we work with calm in the boardroom."

My third visit to Jambo's offices. A year since I painted two rooms in their building in Manchester I'm back in Truro installing a huge Zen Wave Garden mural in their boardroom and an Accounts/Contracts/IT themed mural in the accounts department.

Using low odour spray paint and a fume extractor means I can paint indoors as the company works around me.

St Agnes Sundowner Painting

Last Saturday in St Agnes was The Sundowner. An annual summer village gathering to raise money for Cancer Research with a bar, a buffet, activities and a huge charity auction.

This year they asked me to come along with some paints and capture the atmosphere of the event on canvas and then include the painting in the auction at the end of the evening.

I used a mixture of spray paint, acrylic and watercolour to create a scene of the vibrant evening and painted and chatted with everybody who was interested in what I was doing.
I have been experimenting with this mixture of media lately and it is very challenging but the results can be satisfying, at times.

The painting went up for auction almost before the paint had dried and raised a very respectable £360. Which was a relief after a bottle of Sloe Gin, famously the star of the show, had just sold for £160!

Thanks to Jill Vasey and the other organisers for giving me such a great challenge, way out of my comfort zone, and a massive thanks to the couple who bought the painting as a gift for their friend.
