Apricots and blue bowl.

same format as pictures below, enjoy.

small still life.

another little painting that was produced for an exhibition here in Adelaide, one of a series, all the same size and are displayed standing up on a table, they are on smalll canvases that are about 2 inches thick, I paint the edge black, they look really nice like objects rather than paintings on a wall.

Two Plums and Red apple.

another small still life, about 30 cm. in width, oil on canvas.

Lemons, chillies and bowl.

This is a painting done for my recent Sydney exhibition,I have used lots of white space!! , making a punctuated pattern across the canvas. my camera, didn't pick up a lot of the mauve subleties, that are there in the original.

Cherry and pear.

Another little painting completed over the Christmas break, I like the reflection of the pear on the side of the cherry, and the space around the objects give the picture some sort of dignity, and solitude.

3 Corelle pears.

While painting this little still life, the temperature outside the studio was around 39 deg celcius, over a 100 degrees in the old language, my ancient air conditioner was struggling! I suppose we will all have to expect more and more extreme weather in the future with global warming, becoming a very real part of our lives.but the pears look cool!

still life fruit on a ledge

To see a close up view of any of the paintings, just click on the image, this is one of many pictures I have completed recently for a show coming up at the Artichoke gallery on Magill Rd here in Adelaide.

The three Amigos!

another small still life, I think it is very compelling in it's simplicity, not sure if I should frame it? most people these days prefer their paintings without frames.

birds nest painting

This nest painting was done the other day, it's smaller than I normally do, about 500 x 500 cms, it works well, I believe because it was painted quickly in a more spontaneous way, I held myself back from labouring over it, with too much fine detail, (a habit left over from my years as an illustrator!)

single green pear.
