Comic Panel One# 'Fuck You !'

Oil on canvas-12''x16''.
Back to comic book art and the first one of two. This is a panel out of a comic and deserves a bigger canvas...i just like the fury on the guy's face...the title says it all really.

Surfer Three# 'Red'

Oil on canvas-20''x20''.
The last one at my 'Monet' attempt at surf art and back to the cold green north sea...i will do more but how many 'people surfing' paintings can you do before it gets boring ?

Surfer Two# 'Flat...'

Oil on canvas-18''x24''.
The second in my first surfing inspired trio and since we get more flat days than surf days on the east coast i thought i would do a skater picture...in a very 'impressionist' style...

Surfer One# 'Yellow'

Oil on canvas-18''x25''.
Surf art is one those things that you either get or you dont but since i am a surf fanatic i thought that i would have a go. I surf the area around Scarborough mainly and the water fluctuates from been a rather drab grey to cold green so i thought i would try to take a 'impressionist' slant on the subject matter and try to portray it as it is...notice this must be summer...no boots..he he..

Carravagio# Tribute three

Oil on canvas-20''x20''.
Number three and Salome herself. She's glancing away from the gruesome act but you know she wants to look really...

Carravagio# Tribute two

Oil on canvas-16''x16''.
The second character in my 'dark homage' comic book style. I wanted to give this one a more cadaverous look than the original...i think i succeeded.

Carravagio# Tribute One

Oil on canvas-18''x20''.

As you may tell from the header on this blog my favourite artist is Carravagio and one of my favourite paintings is 'Salome with the Head of St John the Baptist'. This is my version. I have taken the three characters of the piece and split them up into three separate paintings. Therefore you can view them as they are on their own or as one piece. Very dark...ha ha ...

Monkey Three# 'Hear'

Oil on canvas-12''x12''.
The third of the 'Three wise monkeys' and also taken from the old b&w strip i found in a old superboy annual. I was getting bored of painting apes by now so this was a rush job...no more monkeys...for a while anyway.

Monkey Two# 'SEE'

Oil on canvas-14''x18''.
The second of the 'Three wise monkeys' and a rather malevolent looking beast i picked up off the internet...finished the back end of '08.

Monkey One# 'SPEAK'

Oil on canvas-18''x14''.

This is the first one of three simian paintings on the 'three wise monkey' theme and my first one back painting since i got thrown out of art school some years ago. Its an image i picked up from an old Superboy black & white book from the sixties.
