A Man May Go To Heaven Without

I Want To Paint Big, Bright, Optimistic Pictures Of The Place I Love.

During The Winter When The Weather Is Too Poor To Work Outside, I Do Use Drawings And Photographs, But I Change My Work So It Is Not Just A Time And Place Study.

I Really Enjoy Squeezing Out A Big Lump Of Paint Directly Onto The Canvas And Leaving It; Fresh, Immediate And Sometimes Shocking.

I Apply Paint Directly From The Tube And With My Fingers.

The Lifestyle That An Artist Can Have, The Freedom To Wander In The Landscape With No Real Pressure Or Deadlines, Was A Very Attractive One.
