The Penrhyn Summer

An evocation of my teens when I spent a lot of time in and around the old slate quarries of North Wales, notably Penrhyn. This big painting incorporates Ordnance survey maps of the area and has a slate colour which hopefully reflects the moods of the quarries.

Marvellous Work......shapes all work together so well.......really captures the mood and feeling for the time and place.....There feels like a great deal of character in these rocks and wonderful detail in them.....The long winding road has a great effect on the Scene....Excellent, Talented Composition!!!

Love the colour and energy

I like the use of color. I also like how the viewer is placed in the middle of the story. You may not know where the story ends, and you may not know where it began, but viewers are thrust into the heart of the work. Very emotional feel. I like this.

I feel this is a powerful image and skillfully executed....very emotionalas if your life is running away with you! oops guess what I was a therapist!...the mountains behind give good grounding.

I think you have a very distinctive style. I like the element of fantasy, it seems like there is a story behind each part of the painting...

I love this one too very much. You have such unique style, I am amazed..kind of abstract/reralistic/primitivism fusion. Works perfect for a viewr of my type!

Ooh I like this one, love the use of collage, it works brlliantly! theres something quite bleak and foreboding about the landscape which I really like, it has a great atmosphere!

Oh my, I get vertigo looking at this-this brings feelings and excitement. It is marvelous really just wonderful. It is soft and harsh peaceful, tranquil and quite frightening.
