The Figure Paintings and the Fallen Angel series of nudes have led to a number of inquiries as to whether I would do commissions. If you are interested in having an oil painting in a similar style done from a photograph Further details
FALLEN ANGEL NUDES
The Fallen Angel nudes are a series of paintings which draw on an eclectic range of influences including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Caravaggio, Euan Uglow, Egon Schiele and even the famous pin up artist of the 1940’s an 1950’s, Alberto Vargas! The individually coloured backgrounds that give each painting its sub title are stained into the raw stretched linen with acrylic paint and the oil paint is then applied with brushes, rags, sponges and fingers to create a richly textured surface which becomes abstract in detail.

With its obvious reference to the famous Marilyn Monroe Red nude photograph this painting is without doubt the most popular amongst visitors to the Ryepress Gallery. At first I was a little hesitant in exhibiting it, thinking that perhaps its blatant pin up quality would offend or detract from what I still think is just a good painting. The similarity or empathy to the Marilyn Monroe picture is simply a matter of happenstance!
