London bus scenario . . . . no seascapes for weeks then along come two.
Acrylic on canvas, 16"x12"

especially like this one- less colour in the background than normal for a Wootton?

Excellent seascape Tim...:t:

ps...i always imagine cliff faces as an individuals human 'face'....with the oceans tidal currents shaping one's 'views' over time...[if that makes any sense]...:smoke: Not that you needed to know that...

[Great stuff....lovely technique...hope to see more similar works soon]...

A slightly larger piece with a bit of a birdy focus this time;
"Eye Level, Sea Level" - acrylic on canvas, 20"x16"

 

[Apodemus]

Beautiful light and a lovely sparkling sea. Tremendous soul-food.

wish I was putting htis much energy into painting rather than thinking hell, how am I going to teach in a few hours with four pints of beer and half a bottle of wine in me! Superb fulmar! (bloody well hope that sober eyes see a fulmar too!)

Just Tim taking advantage of summer it looks like! But of course that's just a wild guess on my part. In any case, as Colleen says, keep it up. It's an inspiration to us loafers.

Nothing sinister or underhand going on, I assure you - but with having to work on bird surveys whenever the weather's suitable and an illustration job that will take up a lot of time to start next week, I'm just getting a few ideas out of my head and onto canvas. Finding my half-inch brushes also helps; here's another 20"x16" canvas that's had to suffer the long-handled, fat brush treatment.

 

[phil baber]

Oh my gosh! Just seen the last piece.

The power of Nature distilled here fantastically!

And the superb Fulmar drifting through. Breathtaking stuff Tim. And here's me painting Bullfinches in bushes!

 

[Woody]

What a group, sun drenched and dripping with deliciousness applied deftly with the big fat brush!

And the seascapes just speak volumes about the place you're lucky enough to call home.

More!

Great sense of interaction among the birds Tim. I can see where those big fat brushes caused you all sorts of problems.........HAH! I guess we'll have to wait for the short-handled version just to see an even better painting than this.

Just looked at 'Eye level, sea level'. Phenomenal. I find it difficult to comment on full blown works of art like this as I know bugger all about the process, but what I can say is Is their no end to this man's talent with the brush? Reminds me of a Chris Rose special with a few guiding words from Ernest Shackleton!

The Auks are pretty special too. Masterful control in these pieces Tim. Pure economy used to produce powerful results.

 

[colleenc]

[Dark Knight]

Hi Tim this is completely stunning and a real inspiration :t:

This Auk piece is well and truly over the line...

Stunning work Tim....

 

[jacquot]

Love this one! Don't know about the brushes, whatever you found, it worked... Really nice, and I'm glad you are busy.
