Great Western Railway Manor “Lydham Manor” and Hall class locos travelling through the English West Country. This is an oil painting I did in 1997, with a little digital restoration to correct the way the colours had aged. I made a bad mistake at the time, using cold-pressed (instead of boiled) linseed oil as a medium. Lovely if you want to impart a golden brown colour to your work over time, but otherwise not a thing to repeat!
Quite pleased with this, though it’s no one variety of rose, more a sketch from imagination.
Great Western Railway Broad Gauge 2-4-0 ‘Fenton’ of the ‘Hawthorn’ class, done digitally in pencil, pastel and wash.
My latest digital artwork…
GWR “Armstrong Class” 4-4-0 No.16 “Brunel” at Westborne Park in the middle 1890s, and just finished today with extra time on my hands due to the lockdown.
This painting is a high resolution digital painting made using tablet and stylus. The better quality drawing apps can produce surprisingly good results and be amazingly like the natural media paintings that I’ve done for decades.
An Australian ‘Federation’ (ie Edwardian) era cottage, sketched largely from imagination. The sketch was done digitally with tablet and stylus. I’m still undecided which I prefer, the plain or coloured version.
