Style Study #1

Subscribe to receive my Newsletter

I've started working on some style studies of various digital concept artists, trying to transpose their techniques on computer into acrylics. One of my favourite is Feng Zhu, no less. He's worked on many films (starwars...) and lord of the ring video games.
Here's the first one I've done so far . Since this isn't my usual style(s) and it is a style study, I decided to put this study up for auction on ebay with a tiny reserve just to cover material costs :
I'm curious to see what happens :)

"Sheepwrecked"
16x20 in (40x50cm)

Acrylics on Deep Edge Canvas


I love making these sheep painting, the make me smile all throughout. Mind you some artistic license is taken indeed, not least with the sunshine and cloudless skies, but I always find paintings of Ireland too full of greys and darks ; my experience is that it's a wide open beautiful and bright place ...  just not very often :)

"Walkers at Sandymount"
10x14 in (24x35cm) 

Acrylics on Deep Edge Canvas


I came up with the idea of doing walkers a few years back, but never got around to it. There's such a distinctive stance in the way power walkers go about. There's a clear "determination" in their stride and yet it doe not seem to be targeted at anything specific, well nothing other than getting there and back I suppose.

"The Banjo Fan"
8x8 in (20x20cm) 

Acrylics on Canvas

Every musician has his fan(s). I found this out after years of going to sessions, concerts and Fleadhs (traditional music festivals). I sat beside some horrendous players and yet somehow, there was always someone in the audience who simply LOVED their playing, regardless. As an artist I find it both reassuring and disturbing...

Print : Hanging Two

I loved this painting (now sold). I did it straight after a nice little session with another surfer. We had the spot to ourselves and just shared small mellow waves for 3 hours. Bliss. I have a few prints on canvas available now.
