Studio Journal
My journal is much more than a diary—it’s a record of my creative journey, helping you understand why a painting exists, why I chose to work on this at this time and not just how it was made.
From time to time, I will share my thoughts, struggles, and successes in this journal.
The Tree of Life
A day of painting leaves but worth while as my latest Celtic piece is now ready to be varnished.
Courage & Protection
Today’s work another Celtic Design with my favourite Crows as a feature.
Strength, Wisdom & Protection
Finally my latest Celtic Design finished today. Has been four weeks in the designing with many changes.
Creating my next Celtic Design
This morning’s sketch is focusing on designing a dragon & trinity knot for my Celtic Design collection. Dragons have a significant place in Celtic methodology and art.
In this post I am giving a sneak preview of how I start the design process. For these sorts of designs I use good old maths tools to help along with my freehand ability.
Salmon & Celtic Cross
Today started vanishing the Whale Shark and Gannet artworks. Went into Porirua to buy art supplies and decided to work on my next Celtic Design when I returned.
The Crow, sword and Tree of Life
Strength & Connection
This artwork is primarily Ink and Watercolour with both Gold and Silver acrylic pens for the metallic objects. 24cm x 31cm
Hope you like this.
