Over the past few months my focus has been on painting moody industrial landscapes and atmospheric deserted seascapes.
These paintings might be a bit reminiscent of my older ‘Way through the Darkness’ pictures.
I am using a pallet knife technique and more pastose paint but am trying to add a bit more colour to these paintings compared to the Berlin themed pictures which painted in 2001.
I aim to capture feelings of melancholic isolation in a, perhaps, hard and hostile environment without human presence, but, at the same time, making them scenes of depth and beauty.
