Louisiana Jazz

A tribute to memories of NOLA. Not technically perfect but I think I captured the spirit of the French Quarter.

Materials: Acrylics on paper

A view from Thira, Santorini

This is a view from Thira, Santorini looking towards the caldera (volcano)

These are quick 5 minute sketches from my holiday in Perissa, Santorini, Greece in August 2012

Sketches

Here are a few of my recent sketches.

  

I sketched this Fjord at Leeds Art Gallery. The original painting is about 3 metres wide and difficult to reduce to A5.

Thira, Santorini, Greece

This watercolour is a scene from Thira, Santorini in Greece. It was quite a technical drawing (for me!). Overall I’m pretty pleased with it. I’d value any comments……

Seascapes

These three Seascapes are all painted with watercolours. The second painting is in a different style with thicker brush strokes, the way that I would normally attempt pastels – maybe in the style of Van Gogh?

Watercolur

• This is a scene of a Spanish Village that I found in a magazine.
