I paint with oil paints on 150z cotton-duck canvas stretched over wood frames that I make myself. The canvas is sealed with rabbit-size, then with oil-based primer-undercoat paint.
I draw up the paintings free-hand directly from my idea-drawings, imagination and reference photos, so as to maintain my own spontaneous qualities of character and the natural irregularities of line, form and colour/paint textures necessary for the paintings to feel ‘alive.’
