The paintings in this selection don't fit anywhere else, hence the name. I like the freedom and sense of breaking my own rules, by painting 'out of my head'
In the studio, music helps a lot and - something I thought I would
never do - I paint from photographs, and not always my own as you
can see from the Ooty ones - I just made the photographer, Gabriel King.
I was trained that in the search for the truth ....
you must only draw what you SEE is there, not what you KNOW is there..... which I still believe in, and painting from looking is still the cornerstone of what I do.
