🎨✨ PLOT TWIST! ✨🎨
​Sometimes you just need to look at things from a completely different angle—literally! 🔄

​I had completely given up on this canvas months ago and then yesterday I moved it out of the way to clear some space, and accidentally left it standing upside down. Looking at it inverted changed everything. I fell absolutely in love with the new sweep of the composition, the energy shifted, and it suddenly just clicked! 😍

​Needless to say, this piece is officially back from the dead. I’m currently reviving and modifying it and giving it the love it deserves just in time for Bucks Art Weeks! 🖌️✨

​Come and see the finished result (and let me know if you think it looks better this way up!) at the Swanbourne Art Trail, beautifully organized by the wonderful team at Obsidian Art!

​📍 Where to find me: Venue 2 – Swanbourne Village Hall, Mursley Road (MK17 0SH)
📅 When: 6th – 14th June 2026
🕙 Time: Open daily from 10am to 4pm
🎟️ Entry: Completely FREE!

​There are over 40 amazing artists and makers across the picturesque village, a village scarecrow trail, and even a music festival on Saturday the 13th. It’s going to be an incredible week. Pop by, say hello, and explore some gorgeous art!

🎨 It’s all about the base... 💙✨

​Before the main subject even hits the canvas, it’s all about building the atmosphere. It’s still just a background at the moment, but I am completely obsessed with this deep, luminous blue glow! It's exactly the kind of vibrant new direction I'm taking this year.

​Before I take the next step, I want to know... what do you think of this colour blend? Does it feel calming and deep, or more electric and intense? Let me know in the comments! 👇

​📍 Catch me at Bucks Art Weeks!

​See the finished piece at Swanbourne Village Hall (Venue #2) from 6th – 14th June (10am – 4pm daily).

​If you want to grab a coffee, chat about art, or check out the exhibition while I'm personally holding down the fort, here is exactly when I'll be there:

​Saturday 6th June: 12pm – 2pm-ish

​Monday 8th June: 10am – 4pm

​Tuesday 9th – Thursday 11th June: 1pm – 4pm daily

​Entry is completely FREE, all work is for sale, and the beautiful Swanbourne Art Trail features 40 incredible makers organised by Obsidian Art.
Come make a day of it! 🏞️🎨

"Golden Crossing"

A bit of a departure from my usual style but this week needed something more expressive to remember a friend. "Jazzzzzz" won't be the same without you. 💛

From the Snow to the Stars! 🌟

I've switched gears from the seasons to the stars! My new acrylic painting, "Cosmic Campfire," brings together two intense sources of light: the warm glow of a wilderness fire and the cool, dazzling spray of the Milky Way.
​It’s all about finding peace under the biggest, darkest sky.

​What kind of story does this scene tell you? Let me know in the comments 👇

🎨 From Autumn Fire to Winter Solstice! ❄️
​I'm excited to share my second acrylic landscape:
"First Light: Winter Solstice."
​After the intense warmth of autumn, I switched gears to capture the tranquil, dazzling light of a snowy morning. I wanted to evoke that moment when the sun first breaks over a deeply frozen landscape.
​I hope this piece brings a little bit of peaceful winter magic to your feed! What do you think of this switch in seasons?

Inspired by our latest trip to Cornwall, I tried my hand at a more modern style for this seascape. I’m really in love with how it turned out — though Andy’s not quite convinced! 🌊💙 What do you think — modern masterpiece or not your cup of tea?
