A couple of Doctor Who paintings I made during lockdown, when comfort TV and side projects were mandatory. I’d love to see more art shared on this platform. Old or new.

'Boy with Comic.' (c1953) Of all the children who sat for Joan Eardley, Andrew Sampson was her favourite - a boldly but sensitively painted work, a picture which has authority and presence; a proper portrait and not a caricature.

I painted Annabelle when one of my bad roomies friends dropped her off at my place, unannounced. My roommate refused to watch Annabelle. I took care of Annabelle for three days. Had to shorten this story 'cause everyone wants to be twitter for some reason.
