We got some new artwork delivered to the office a few months back. Several pieces were photographs of lips, pulling different expressions. Simple but I loved it. I grabbed my paints last weekend and spent a few hours throwing together a colourful interruption of this work. The end product was a bit cartoony… bit someone bought it so I retract my criticism. The piece was put together rather quickly. 2 hours using acrylic and chalk. Im not sure Im going to use the splatter effect for much longer as it doesn’t feel like my style. Still Im glad I experimented with it for a period.

Another one finished. So this painting took me a few months to complete. The layers and different mediums used meant it had to be done in stages. The main mediums are Acrylic, Gesso and Spray Paint (using spray paint makes me cool right?). Im not a portrait painting person but this man is my idol, through and through. Hope David approves. #davidattenborough#blueplanet2 #planetearth2

First attempt at #acrylic #texturepainting. The idea was to use my hands and a palette knife. There’s a lot of technique that I’ll change for the next time but I’m pretty pleased with the result. The idea was to be as minimalistic as possible. Research lead me to a few artists who’s work I enjoyed but the overall outcome used my own techniques.
