SKYLINES
I am also inspired by skylines and other structures in the landscape, from complex cityscapes to rock formations or man-made structures such as a bridge dominating a horizon; however I choose to omit much of their detail and represent these as simplified forms.
In 2011 I won Merseytravel’s Art on the Network competition ‘Design a New Skyline’, for the Queensway (Birkenhead) Tunnel. My ‘Liverpool Composition’ and ‘Wirral Composition’ designs were made into murals on the new cladding, approximately 5m high and 22m wide, and are public artworks on permanent display at each end of the tunnel.
Limited edition prints are available of my original acrylic paintings 'Liverpool Composition' and 'Wirral Composition', based on the designs for the murals in the Birkenhead Tunnel, and the new 'Mersey Composition', based on the view along the Mersey from New Brighton.
