Colour Journey Acrylic Abstract Painting 61x91cms (sold 23 May 09)

My love of colour is unstoppable, I completed this painting some time ago, it has a layer of impasto medium. I use this in most of my acrylic paintings and build on this with layers of opaque colour applied with a brush and palette knife followed by layer upon layer of glazes . Please add comments and add me to you favourites. This painting has just been listed on ebay

Todays new acrylic painting (sold)
is a place I long to visit, the Kimberleys in North Western Australia, I used a lot of thick paint applied with the palette knife to create the texture on the rocks, which is my usual signature and layers of transparent glazes to add depth. The secret to creating harmony in a painting is to always think about complementary colours, orange and blue in this case. Ive been told by those who have visited this place that it really looks like it.
