‘Follow Me’

Partly inspired by a mixture of the Dutch painter Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan & the modern technology his Oils on Canvas by Hayes is entitled “Follow Me”. The inspiration for the blocks of colours comes from  Mondriaan’s bold use of coloured squares and rectangles in his . Mondriaan began producing grid-based paintings in late 1919, and in 1920, the style for which he came to be renowned began to appear. Mondriaan’s paintings arrive at what is to casual observers their definitive and mature form. Thick black lines now separate the forms, which are larger and fewer in number, and more of the forms are left white. How the technology comes into it is really up to the viewer, only some of whom will be ‘smart’ enough to figure out. Have you got the smarts to figure it out?

Whispers @art_online

The key to their room jammed in the lock at first, then they were greeted by an unpleasant smell wheezing out of a vent in the wall. Because they had been dating for a very short while, this was all tremendously funny. Leonie lay back on the bed, looking very sweet and winsome with her tawny hair fanned around her face, cheeks flushed, her blue eyes set off prettily by her blue dress. Claudia rested her head on Leonie’s stomach and let the little wavelets of happiness come. Some hours later they staggered out of a bar and into the thick seaside mist, drunk as lords. They could not really see where they were going and did not especially care, since they were getting excited by pointing out how dangerous a match they likely were for one another. They began a rapid exchange of the many awful things they had done to past lovers. My Gallery Extracts...

I miss the sunrises in Bray

Bray is well a very popular spot for all sorts of film makers and you’ll see plenty of ads on the telly that use the location to great effect. I liked Bray for the subject matter and I used to spend a lot of time in Bray taking photographs that I would later paint. The railings on the promenade in Bray was one of my first attempts at painting when I first started back in 2000. I really did prefer the colour of the railings back then. I hope they will eventually change the colour back. I used to drop my son to school every morning and I can remember the stunning sun rises as we took a detour along Bray seafront. I’m sure they are still as spectacular as ever.  I miss the sunrises and those days. Here are a couple of memories from my time around Bray. My...
