New Paintings at Autumn Exhibition

I have started painting again! And it's a wonderful feeling although my first brush-strokes were somewhat nervous. I have been drawing non-stop since the end of my degree show last year, but I have barely touched my brushes, so this is a quite big thing for me.

At the moment I have almost finished my two first paintings, and I've started the third one. The first two paintings are continuations of the Series 2 paintings (see web page) from 2007. They are both 50x60 cm acrylic on board - the inspiration is a mixture of Egyptian art, intimacy and everyday objects - but I think (and hope) the finished products might communicate something quite different. These two first paintings will most likely be part of the Autumn Exhibition at Thompson's Marylebone Gallery in London 27th September - October 12th this year.
