This is a mixed bag with no unifying theme.  They all hold something for me.
 

Wisp took me ages.  It started life as a completely different painting - lots of greens, bright blues and yellows.  I sat with it for a few months but it really didn't say anything to me.  I painted over it with a blue-orange mix and used a knife (for the first time I think) to see what would emerge. So a bit of an experiment, but one that worked in my view.

Obelisk and Nocturne were continuations of using the knife to paint. I like them both.  Nocturne really does it for me.  I like the way the shapes emerge from the background.  Nocturne was named by famed DGM diarist - the semi legendary Sid "don't call me Colin" Smith. I want to do more in this style.

The Right Moment holds a special place for me. It was the first painting I did for, oh I don't know twenty years?  I had decided I wanted to paint again - and use acrylics for the first time.  I had bought several canvases and a selection of colours.  I set up, painted a yellow background and then cleared my mind and waited for the right moment to come.  When it did I attacked the canvas with three or four immediate strokes and there is was!  Of course I couldn't repeat it and later efforts were, frankly, crap. But I think I caught one there!

I have mixed feelings about Pastoral.  It was an early attempt for another 'Right Moment'. Instead I think I got an 'almost but not quite moment'. Having said that I like the colours and the movement in the painting.

Cathedral is from an aborted set of paintings.  The original set of four seemed to point in a mystical/religious direction but overall failed to convince me as a collection of paintings.  My mate, Sid Smith, saw the cathedral in this one - a shaft of light with a figure emerging from the bottom.  I like this one a lot and tried to recreate it as a larger painting but it never had the power of the smaller original for me.
