Work in progress

A painting I am making in the studio at Rijswijk. To be continued... I am going off to my house in France for a week - a wonderful prospect.

Life of Brian....

Brian Irvine came to Limassol with his utterly crazy jazz band and gave us a night of high energy, seriously off-beat wild sounds.. this not very typical work (For Brian Irvine, 60 x 50 paper collage, inks, on canvas 2005) was made for him out of sketches I was making at high speed all the way through the concert.. it includes pencil scribbles of some of the exclamations he made along the way such as "have some Ice cream!", "Endure!" (He meant Enjoy!) and "empty space" - that is the bottom right hand corner, of course..... here is the whole image and two details... normal services will be resumed as soon as possible :)

Model with red scarf....twice

Two very short poses on one page with the blood-red scarf falling through the composition and linking the figures. (Double nude study with scarf. Patel on A2 green paper. 2007) And now to Rotterdam for the last etching session of the semester.
