D is For Dale

D is For Dale
 Oil  on MDF
246x246mm
 $500
sold

This is a postcard within a postcard or a painting within a painting if you like. The one pinned to the wall behind the bottles is from my colleague Marianne Muggeridge, and is a view of Mt Taranaki.  The yellow D on the childs block is my partner Dales's initial. There seemed to be a lot of male/female elements going  in this work and I toyed with the idea of calling it Anima Animus which is Jung's names for the male and female principle found in all of us. I can never remember which is which. A problem that only seems to get worse with age...

New Prints



I have had some prints made of these paintings and I'm rather pleased with them. They are made using lightfast inks on high quality archival German made paper, which has a guaranteed life of 400 years or something... long enough for us to be dead and gone anyway.  The image size is approximately the same dimensions as the original paintings - approx 200mm square or 8 inches.  I will limit the editions to 500 and each one will be signed and numbered at the bottom margin. I have been doing a bit of research into suitable pricing and it seems like $60 is a very reasonable figure plus $9 for posting and packing.

A quick sketch of buttercups.  Hopefully it has something of the almost desperate urgency of Spring.

It was a lovely spring day and I felt like painting some buttercups. They are one of my favourite flowers with their intense yellow.
