Oils?
Here's one I did even earlier...

Dayvo will be less loving now. All based on Fibonacci numbers...spiralling clockwise from the centre...

No, Fibonacci works with me. Something to do with catering for OCD and neatness and order.

Colour, on the other hand, appears to be seen through the eyes of a dog, which have lesser of a range than humans.

But you must be careful of the sting in the tail when criticising art, as beauty is in the eye of the bee holder.

I have others...

I used to paint with oils but haven't recently, as slow-drying paints and cats do not really go very well together. These days I use mainly acrylics and watercolour, but dabble in pen & wash, pencil and mixed media as well. Here's a few examples of my recent stuff. Am currently working on a 24x20 canvas of a Sunbeam Talbot on the '81 RAC rally in acrylics. Painting is part of my evening "me time"

Paul Warwick MMM Reynard 90D, Paddock Hill Bend, Brands Hatch, 20x16 watercolour.

Henri Toivonen / Fred Gallagher, Opel Manta 400, 1983 Manx International, Staarvey special stage. 20x16 acrylic.

Severus Snape, A4 pen & wash.

The late Justin Wilson, 20x16 acrylic.

I used to do watercolours, but prefer messing around with ink these days using fingers, bits of rag and cocktail sticks.

Those are stunning. I love the reflections of the boat in the water. Really amazing.

Is there anywhere we can see some more of your work?

 

[wheresthetorch]

I think I have a couple of pieces stashed away in the loft, but most has been given away or lost in various house moves. It's something I don't do that often due to lack of time, but I kept and framed this piece as I was particularly pleased with it.

New Year's resolution maybe!

If you spend as much time thinking about it as you doing 'executing' it, then it should be a simple matter.

I do not think, I am inspired
