But I did buy..


This. Finally it was pay day and his work has been on my wish list for ages, I suspect it will be the first of many. He describes himself as a painter of clutter and I am surrounded by clutter, but some how he makes it appear so ordered.
I have been trying to paint with my oils for the last two months but nothing feels right, I am so anal the minute two colours slip into each other I cringe. I blame one person for this, a lecturer named Pat Albeck. Whilst at Camberwell she tightened my style up so much I have never really unwound since. So I have decided to paint swatches and return to my comfort zone, the wonderful world of collage.
