finished these 2 last night
can’t decide whether or not to show them in Belfast
exhibition is 2 weeks today
3rd – 23rd April at The Mill Conway Street Belfast
only just enough time to get them framed
oh, wow, thanks very much, it is really so very hard for me to know sometimes, and of course it’s all a matter of individual taste, but these are more landscape, more figurative, less abstract than my usual work, and I feel unskilled and miniscule when faced with trying to capture the awesome magnitude of these mountains. I am no longer surprised that some Nepalis and Tibetans believe these mountains to be divine.
thanks so much for your comment, must say I never consciously consider the golden ratio, although it comes naturally with a sense of balance I suppose! these 2 paintings ( both of which I took to be framed this afternoon, incidentally, we shall see how they turn out), I sort of expect to be top heavy, because that’s how I felt up above Kathmandu, the mountains we’re sooooo huge, floating above the world somehow
Thanks very much Suzan. They got shown in my Belfast exhibition at Easter 2014 – but sadly almost no-one saw the show which was on the 5th floor with a broken lift. They found new happy homes with my daughters š

I think you should show them. They are good. Very good.

The one above seems finished, the one below needs a little dark color to make it a good composition in the golden ratio (68:32)
