Cheers mate, went away from the colour with last few. but will go back there soon
thanks for your comments

Thanks vvery much mate,
taken on board what your saying, My thinking this year and the new paints, is to drop all fancy gimmicks, one of them is colour for now. The task might be impossible, but I want these paintings to work. using simply and now a days primative ways. 1. My Head, 2. Paint, 3. A brush, 4. A wooden board. You might think I have gone mad. But at least I am asking myself these questions. and taking a diifferent approach to things. which I think as an artist is a must. Strip all the bull s**t, sick of: Money, Brand Names, Repetitive and trend Art. Simplyโฆ I paint, and paint, and paint, and paint my balls off. If you look, then look again and again, cos there is alot to look at, they might be just heads. but Go beyond that look at the Paint, the strokes, and the underlying.
I am a straight forward, honest Yorkshire man, I don't follow, I always try and keep trying new things, take big Risks, shoot myself in the foot quite alot. But I do it for the ART and not the BRASS, I think nowadays this quality massively lacking form the whole Art Game. I have had no art college or university teaching me what not to do, or how to do it, that is probably why some times I have seemed all over the place, in other words what many other top artists do at UNi, I have done here or in the public eye over the last 10 years. Everything I do I have learnt and developed myself. All my techniques are my own. Tried and played around with everything. Stencils Full detailed paints Abstracts Clssical/Traditional Extreme Collage 3d sculpted Paints
I think these paintings are the Total Truth
these words are in no way directed at you fingerz I really appreciate you taking the time and giving me your opnion I value everybodys, it drives me further
Its not how to Paint well Itsโฆ how not to paint, brilliantly
sorry for rant Cheers
