Given the fact my studio is in Hitchin, since my show ‘Two Birds and a Bloke’ in 2013, I have been producing a new style of work exclusively for The Art Nest, finally painting a subject matter I’ve been desperate to explore for years, that of birds.  Rather than an acrylic underpainting followed by refining the image in oils, I am working purely in acrylics, in a looser, more painterly style.  I hope the work will appeal to my collectors given the fact I still exaggerate colour, and am either choosing brightly coloured birds, or simply setting them against bold flat colour to allow me to exploit this.
