There’s nothing like a blank canvas, primed and ready to go! I’ve been quite bold with the size as the walls in the Poole Museum gallery space are 2 metres in height. The painting is 1m68cm – it should look imposing and impactful in the space! Who wants miniatures?!!!

Building up layers of oil paint to create a moody surface inspired by the sea at Poole Quay.

I will keep posting images of the painting as it develops.
