Posh Paws

You've probably noticed that all the animals in my work tend to be well groomed.
That's because, like any animal lover I believe in spoiling my furry friends.
These, however have gone one step further. They are not shy about showing a little bling!
They like to think of themselves as style icons and aren't shy about posing for pictures.

Cat Calls

The fur is flying!
Dogs, cats and pigs are being spotted all over the UK. They must be breeding fast.
I've had some great feedback from buyers who appreciate the message conveyed by the pieces.
More are appearing online now and I've updated my list of participating galleries for those who might want to take a closer look. I have plans for some more new animals in the near future. I'll keep you posted.

Animal Magic

Hello again. Since my last post things have started to move rapidly.
The new animal pieces are getting a few galleries quite excited and some are updating their websites with them.
The work itself is evolving and I've made a few tweeks to my method of producing them.
I've finally got the palette where I want it and the subject has got plenty of legs (excuse the pun).
The pieces are currently in three sizes: 16" square, 24" square and a nice landscape 15"x40" version.
Here's are some of the galleries stocking my new work so far. If I've missed you out I do apologise, but if you are happy to be included please let know by becoming a follower.

It's raining cats, dogs and pigs!

A Happy new year to you. I hope 2012 brings you all that you wish for.

I enjoyed working on the cats so much I just had to expand the range of animals.
So here I introduce some new, cheeky little characters to my collection.
I tried to create as much expression with as little detail as possible. The result is a happy mix of warmth and contentment. More will follow soon.......

The Cat's Out of the Bag

In between painting yummy sweets I've decided to take forward something I've had on the back burner for a long time. Having been the lucky custodian of two gorgeous ragdoll cats
I couldn't ignore the temptation of producing some cat themed pieces. So, using them as my subject and a Gustav Klimt frieze I have had on my wall for some inspiration, I've created the following:

Golden Girls

Contentment

Good Friends

I've finished them off with an enamel coat which gives them an extra dimension.
I've enjoyed doing them so much I've just got to do some more. Watch this space.

Sugar Fix

Here's a message to those with a taste for sugar. It's a guilty pleasure, but don't worry. There's no calories in looking!

I hope these make your mouth water.

I saw one of these pieces framed last week by my distributor and the frame looks stunning!
I just wish I could see one in the galleries. Alas, I'm too busy painting the next one.

Sweet Dreams

I'm pleased to say that people are developing an appetite for my tasty delights.
I decided to increase the variety of subjects and go for a bit of drama.
These two latest pieces are 15"x40". Light plays a large part in these pieces in particular,
capturing the unique qualities transparent sweets have. The cellophane was great fun to work on and I can't wait to get on with some more. Only problem is...there's too many sweets around my home now!
