Central Park II
24 x 18 acrylic on canvas board derived from a photograph that I took on a visit to New York Central Park. Awesome place an oasis in the middle of the city.
Born in London England and transplanted in Wichita Kansas USA in 1995. Married with two adult daughters who both live in Wichita also. I have painted for many years originally with water colour but have used acrylics for some time now as you can achieve similar effects as water colours but with faster drying times. I like to take photographs of urban life i.e. buildings, people, transport and use these as the basis for the artwork. More recently since adopting the rescue horse Summer I have painted abstract and representational paintings of horses. My interpretation will use complimentary colours as a rule but do sometimes use the colours that are represented in the photograph. I have donated art to local charities who have sold them at auction. This is my first blog so I will use it to show current work in progress and finished pieces that may be purchased; if interested in purchasing any art pieces please visit the link to fineartamerica in the blog list on this page.
