You have a compelling style. A combination between realism and a more playful cartoon feel.. it’s definitely very beachy and summery. I would love to see more work outside of your comfort zone though. Anyway, yeah, I love these pieces :)
hey Damien, well….i’m open to suggestions about working out of my comfort zone! I’ve got an image bank of over 500 paintings, 1000’s of ceramic designs (worked as a homewares, ceramic artist for well over 10 years) yardage prints, placement designs, painted murals, (toilets, pubs, school buildings….balancing on ricketty ladders 6 metres off the ground) amphibious bus in Figi and have so far painted or designed anything that has been suggested. There’s not many subjects or styles I haven’t played with. Now, maybe you were meaning comfort zone as in painting a ceiling? Or missing breakfast? Now, that’d be uncomfortable! I’ve even painted turtles. i guess as my dad would say, I’m old enough and ugly enough to know what i enjoy now and that is still pretty varied. You gotta pay bills, huh?
