The second painting in my New York series is now ready and has been posted in the gallery. The oil on canvas painting is 85cm x 85cm (33.5" x 33.5") and is available framed. I really enjoyed this one and for a couple of weeks was able to lose myself in New York whilst portraying the shapes, colours and motion of what in my opinion is one of the most beautiful cities I have had the pleasure of visiting.

The latest addition to the gallery is the first in a series of 4 paintings inspired by my recent visit to New York. Even though I followed through on the current theme 'People At Work', this is the first time the subject matter has come from outside Africa. I loved working on this one using colours and shapes to portray one of New York's iconic figures.

By very popular request, giclee prints for each of the paintings are available for purchase directly from this website.
Each print is produced on 100% cotton canvas and is stretched over a 2" thick wooden stretcher frame. The square format prints are 20" x 20". Please check the landscape prints for format sizes.
The prints are hand embellished by the artist for an authentic look and feel and are numbered and signed. 5 artist proofs of each print is available numbered APx/5 and 50 limited edition prints numbered x/50.
All the fine art prints are presented in a frame made from best quality Sapele (a hardwood native to West Africa) as in the example on the right. The frame is treated with boiled linseed oil to preserve it.
The limited edition prints cost on average about $450 with the Artist Proofs at $550. Delivery charges are per order, not per item.
To place an order please go to the 'Shop' link above.

It's been nearly 30 years since I last exhibited and so was understandably apprehensive showing my work at ArtExpo in New York earlier this month. However, this all dissipated with the feedback I received. Comments like '...you are talented', '...your work is beautiful', '...so real and touchable' and '...life captured beautifully' appeared in my guestbook. I managed to sell 3 of my favourite paintings (now in the collection of buyers from the New Jersey area) and for me the show was an overwhelming success.
I met a number of buyers, galleries and had offers from publishers and was both inspired and humbled by the experience.
So, a huge thank you to all who stopped by my booth, you should all be on my mailing list. To those who purchased my paintings, many thanks, I am sure you will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed painting them.
