'Lodge (1): Weetwood Villa' I think this is finished - one down, twenty-six to go! Weetwood Villa and its lodge, between Weetwood Lane and Otley Road, were built in 1861 by John Simpson for the banker Henry Oxley. The villa is now the Oxley Hall student residence. Acrylic on canvas 41 x 51 cm

Evolution & ecology offer us guidance on successfully tackling extremist monocultures: their domination is weakened by increased diversity. By growing more resilient diverse social/political/media ecosystems, we undermine toxic superpower, from the bottom up.

The third painting of a view looking across the ‘Empty Square’. (The Empty Square is the most featureless square on the ordinance survey maps of the Uk. It contains one pylon. It’s near Ousefleet in East Yorkshire. It’s often referred to as the dullest place in the UK). #painting #landscapepainting

This is a study of a Veteran Pedunculate oak that can be found at @yspsculpture.bsky.social map ref SE 28964 12677 It’s part of my Keepers of Time project that will be exhibited at the sculpture park from 15th February. The project looks at the ancient and veteran trees that can be found there.

𝐿𝑖𝑚𝑏𝑜: overpainting oil layers 9,8,7 (images new to old) I still can't think of a suitable title, and I think the painting is needing something more so I'm not sure it's finished, we'll see. I'm liking the very dark, muted tones and drawing-like lines. What do you folks think? Hope you like?

Worked on some of the A4(ish) acrylic paintings at home today. #art #acrylicpainting

𝐿𝑖𝑚𝑏𝑜: The 3rd layer of underpainting - 'wash/stain', the imprimatura. Will be taking a pause for a bit to allow for drying.

𝐿𝑖𝑚𝑏𝑜: Continuing with the first painting of the project. The 2nd layer of underpainting - 'inking in'.

New project series - 𝐿𝑖𝑚𝑏𝑜 - the imagery, hopefully, will be familiar and identifiably by me but I'm allowing myself to experiment, by being a lot more painterly to allow texture come through a bit more. Limbo? Details to come 😉👍 Here's a commission I've just started - 1st layer - drawing in

2/2. With living just 1/2 streets away from the stadium I get to see when it's so bright, vibrant and at times saturated. The glow does seem dependent on the density of mist/fog and just how heavy the clouds above are. And snow seems to provide a variety of effects too. Love it.
