The exciting
immediacy of painting in the medium of watercolour pushes you to paint in the moment and then holds you in suspense while the particles of pigment
work out their place and space. I have no “theme” to my work and like to
explore different styles. I aim to go with the unpredictability of the medium and uncertainty of the outcome, trying to restrain the urge to control too
tightly. The process often starts with a
specific idea and careful planning which then gives way to allowing things to
go their own way: to have fun, learn from watching and accept the unpredictable.
I have no formal
training in Art. Many years ago, my wife Jean bought me a watercolour painting as
a gift - it fascinated me and eventually prompted me to have a go. I’d paint
after work and after the children had gone to bed, often into the early hours
of the morning. I’ve now retired
to concentrate on painting.
