By Alan:
"Up until recently my main focus has been on people and life drawings/paintings with the occasional diversion of a still life. My subjects are more varied now and include seascapes and landscapes but getting a good likeness of a person still gives me an enormous kick. I've had a number of sales (both home and abroad). It's always rewarding when someone likes your work enough to part with their hard earned cash. It speaks volumes and is a great confidence booster."
Artworks:
Most of my work is in pastel, a medium that was convenient when I worked full time. Now I'm retired I'm exploring the potential of oils to give me more range. Although I am largely self taught I have been influenced by a number of artists and strive to emulate them but in my own way.
