Another one of my late 90’s painting, dumbly titled ‘Whoops’. Oil on canvas.

‘Star Person 7’ I painted this in early to mid 2000s on a huge canvas.

One of my abstract paintings from 2003. Created by scraping back three or four previous paintings on the same canvas (because I hated them), eventually arriving at this.

‘Abstract’, 2003, oil on canvas

I painted this in the late 1990s. It doesn’t have a title.

‘Untitled’ late 1990s oil on canvas

One of the first of my paintings that actually sold. ‘Forest Eyes’ 1990 oil on canvas.

Years ago I used to paint but I can’t do it anymore. I’m hoping one day my painting mojo will return. ‘Stars are Falling’ 1991, oil on canvas.

‘Metal Planet’ by David A Hardy. Painted in 1974 before Star Wars. I’ve been admiring this painting ever since I spotted it in Future magazine in 1978. Thirty four years later I contacted the artist in the slim hope the original painting might be available for sale. Alas, Mr Hardy sold it years ago.

‘Lost.’ I painted this in 1990, in a mad late night session. There’s no doubt it is badly painted but its amazing how much I didn’t worry about that at the time. I didn’t even have to try…I just stood in front of the canvas and out it splurged. I wish I could do that these days.

I painted this in 1990 after a trip to Moonlight Heads along the Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia where we drank beer, told ghost stories and slept on gravestones in the old cemetery. Moonlight Heads then was just a large open area of scrub on a cliff top overlooking the ocean. It had a charming old cemetery and that’s about all. Soon it will be this
