  • Had a little fun at Pablo’s expense.. / Pablo Picasso’s Blue Period refers to a series of paintings in which the color blue dominates and which he painted between 1901 and 1904. / I decided to turn that into his “blues” period, hence he is holding a harmonica.. You know you want one..

  • Original: oil on canvas. / Size: 110cm X 90cm / More on this painting in the journal CLICK HERE / – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - - I imagined Pablo popping into the studio one night whilst painting..* I often wonder about what it would be like to talk to one of the many renowned artists from years gone by. Particularly the ones who have inspired my own work in some way. I’m really not convinced Pablo Picasso was as difficult a character as the media made him out to be. What sort of conversation would one have with someone like that if he was sitting having coffee in my studio? What would he have to say about my own work and what comments would he offer on the painting I was working on? I’m sure we could share a laugh or two…maybe about his poor English, maybe about my lousy coffee. One sunny afternoon not that long ago, I started preparing a large canvas with a menagerie of oil colour and impasto medium using a spatula and large flat brush. I’d recently watched an autobiographical Jackson Pollock movie and was enjoying taking risks with several cans of paint, a dripping stick and some time on my hands. I always had in mind that eventually the whole canvas would get several washes of burnt sienna so wasn’t too concerned about the clash of colours that afternoon. I’d covered some of this ground with an earlier “Coltrane” painting although I was leaning more towards a Basquiat feel with that piece. I really wasn’t thinking too much past the fact that I simply wanted to have a shot at creating an abstract work I would be pleased with. So I was quietly confident the burnt sienna wash the next morning would pull this whole thing together. After highlighting shadow areas with burnt umber and rubbing back some sections of the painting with a rag, I was pleasantly surprised at how it was turning out, and left it at that on the easel for the next few days. I had four other paintings on the go at that stage (“Red Dust Girl” series) along with another new painting called “Nighthawk”. I would work on these intermittently and every now and again glance over at this new abstract sitting on the easel at the other end of the room. You think about a lot of things when you are painting. Maybe painting is really pondering.. I don’t know. One thing is for sure though, you resolve a lot of things which aren’t always on the canvas in front of you. It’s when the magic happens . Greek mythology speaks of the “muse” as a source of inspiration, accessible by artists and generally restricted to artists. The muse is not in itself a delusion or hallucination, but rather a myth to which writers, musicians, painters, and more are able to credit the conception of their art to. I agree that something unexplainable and mysterious does occur during the creative process and I am continually surprised at what can emerge from a blank canvas if you invite any possibility. I’m not sure what it was that particular night but I started to see something missing in the abstract and it was bugging me. I continued painting one of the Red Dust Girl works and somewhere between the French jazz I was listening to and the second glass of merlot, I started thinking about Picasso. Something about this new abstract reminded me of his work but I didn’t know what. The next few days I buried myself in two old Picasso hard backs I managed to borrow from a local library. One particular book focused on his charcoal work and I fell in love with his “Study for Circus Performers” so much that I cut one picture out and pasted it into my notebook (hopefully the librarian won’t find out). In the later stages of the painting I wanted to collage this onto the work but changed my mind. I’ve revisited Picasso’s work many times over the years and still find myself quite subjective about it. I love his early more figurative, labored pictures along with the pink and blue period but was surprised by his change in style to the abstract in later years. I continued to work on the other paintings over the next few days and pondered again the Picasso connection with the abstract at the far end of the studio. One of the books I had borrowed was sitting on the painting stool next to it. From a portrait on the front cover Picasso seemed to be looking right back. It was an amusing moment and I was struck with the thought of what it would be like if someone like him “just dropped in”. It didn’t take me long to realize the missing piece for the painting, which is ironic considering the inclusion of the collaged piece of a jigsaw puzzle in the foreground of the finished work. So Picasso finally dropped by. We talked. I painted. Sometimes painting leads you into unexpected places, and as the saying goes “if you don’t know where you’re going.. any road will get you there”. Another coffee Pablo? / /

  • An old wall in an alley-off-an-alley in the middle of Melbourne’s CBD.

  • The title says it all. I had been studying Picasso and then this came out. Prismacolor pencils on poster board. Original measures 11”x14”. Copyright 2007 Collins

  • Just a little idea I had.. Robot dad takes his daughter to the robot art museum.. I had fun with it.

  • Caused but the ripples of the receding tide, the pattern reminded me of a Picasso painting of a face.

  • This is my first painting “acrylic on canvas”. This work has inspired and encouraged me to move forward with my art. Because my teacher told me “Keep painting” after viewing this work it has encouraged me to do just that. It has a special place for me, and has pushed me into the world of creativity. Although mirrored on Picasso’s “Women with book”, here this painting has so much of me in it. Featured Redbubble Home Page 280209 /

  • I took a liking to a sculpture of a nanny goat when I was at the Picasso Museum in Paris and decided to do a drawing based on it. I don’t know if Picasso would have approved, but I had great fun doing it. The original is called Nanny Goat (Chevre) and was sculpted in 1950, the year I was born. I used A3 paper and coloured pencils.

  • *Oil and oil stick on Canvas (Diptych) 120×180 cm / Francis Keevil Gallery / Double Bay Sydney / Dec 11 – 25th 2008. (SOLD) “The Painters” are Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso and Frida Kahlo. It’s a homage of sorts to several artists I have been interested in over the years. / There is a degree of metaphor interwoven throughout this large work which had been hanging on my studio wall for quite some time in various degrees of completion whilst I procrastinated over changes and over painting areas. / Finally out of the studio though and bound for someones home eventually. Incidently, the “hand” earring that Frida Kahlo is wearing was a gift from Pablo Picasso whom she met while in Paris. The hand makes reference at what is called in Mexico “milagros”. Milagros are pieces made of wax or ivory shaped in the form of the part of the human body that the person wants to be healed, and left on the altar of the Saint they pray to. Some close ups:

I hand cut out each figure and suspended it behind 12 + harvested ,recycled glass panes( yes,its heavy),I wanted them to come to life as if a real circle was moving in space…. / Added fine opalescence glitter for a glint to catch your eye as you pass by,and a back panel of smoke blue Mylar paper on which I hand painted acrylic glazed clouds… / It is housed in a hand made pine shadow box (not show) with leaves tooled in the trim and a decorative brass handle. / Like the song “man in the mirror ”... who ever views it, sees their own reflection in the dance for peace. Do you care to join in? Let’s take a peek….. Homage to Picasso’s “Peace Dance”

  • ACRYLIC PAINT<acrylic>

  • 2009 Acrylic on Watercolour paper 24×18” Chasing Picasso was Featured in / Lifeline Group 07 Nov 09 When I was a young boy and was just starting to learn to paint…..I’m still learning….we as artists never stop learning. I believe when we stop learning we die…..maybe not phyically but the minute we stop learning …...our creativity and our imagination is dead…...I am amazed at some local artists here in the California central coast, and also in the City (San Franscisco) and other places that I have been, of some beautiful work as artists who’s work I have known for a long time and they are still using same technics and styles they learned in art school 20 years ago…....And I always hear them say I run out of ideas to paint….....OMG I have chased Picasso since I was a young boy maybe 7 learning to paint…...as a prolific artist/painter I always average 2 to 4 paintings a day the small ones 24×30”, and 18×24” if I paint any smaller i won’t be able to see what I’m painting. ......Not everyday of course…. / My favorite sizes are 60×48” and 54×84” and 48×48” These take me a little longer some as much as 100 hours each, of course I paint dozens of other works at same time. I would go crazy painting only one painting for 100 hours., I have to keep transferring my creative energy to other works or I would go bananas…..I have studied Picasso my whole career and his work still amazes me, and his creative output I believe is still unmatched as he was a prolific artist/painter

  • mix medium drawing on white matte photo paper. :-) I think I took about 2 or 3 hours just doodling and came up with this. I usually paint or draw a more realistic style, but I really think every artist should do something different from the norm. It’s fun, and very liberating. myspace.com/artistmind
