I have been doing a few more abstract works, but I have been told that abstract is a tricky word, because an abstract is supposed to be based on something else real. The word "non-subjective'' was suggested, but I think of the work itself as the subject. I came up with " less subjective" as a compromise. Kind of weak. 

I have decided to separate the non-human animals from the others. I'm not sure why, but I think we all feel a little kindlier to the non-humans. I also think that pastel is a very good medium to capture coats of te various animals. I don't know why I have not painted more of them.

This collection contains traditional and more abstract oil land, sea and sky paintings

I draw figures regularly and have done so for years. I tend to regard my drawings mainly as training and practice, but I include here some paintings of figures that I have done over several years.

These are works painted in pastel on site. They tend to be smaller than those done in the studio. Some of them I revise or add to in the studio, but mostly I try to finish them while on site.
