Oil Paint

h: 10 w: 20 d: 1 (cms).

This painting captures a summer’s day at the zoo in Paignton, Devon. The scene is loosely interpreted, with forms simplified into bold patches of colour and shape, giving it a collage-like, semi-abstract quality. I used a combination of brushes and a palette knife throughout. Working with a palette knife limits precision, but that lack of control often leads to unexpected and pleasing textures and marks. The process felt playful and spontaneous, making it an especially enjoyable to paint.

£500 (As exhibited.)
