I just love working with orange! Orange is for the brave. Here I wanted to also paint white. What colour is white? It is a reflection of the colours around it. This was a happy break from my botanical studies and I feel I have control over the arrangements of still life.
Ready to hang.

How impressive would this look hanging in your home. Add a couple of orange mates to make a great trio.

At the top, a small round pebble—seemingly minor yet essential—holds the entire structure together, symbolising how even the smallest elements play a vital role in maintaining harmony.

If you know my work, you will see a theme in all the subject matter of phenomena appearing and disappearing. This is life. Things form and appear, then breakdown and disappear. Here, the teapot and cups move towards the light and transform into the unknown. I am constantly reflecting on this theme. And yes, there is a dog.

A collection of ornaments, including a little carved coyote that I bought in Santa Fe. The little painting is one that I did over 20 years ago at art school and fulfils my penchant for including images within images into my work. It's colourful and it will bring a little joy and wonder to any space.
The edges are painted white and it is unframed.

These were the first teapots I made as a potter. They are very quirky and have all kinds of issues, the way first teapots do. Making a teapot is considered the potter's "Everest". They look simple enough, but everything has to fit to the millimetre, and of course, they need to pour well! The handle must feel comfortable to hold and the lid must fit just right - plus you have to remember to put the steam hole in. I kept the egg like one because it amused me, and call it good fortune or beginner’s luck, it actually does pour very well.
I always like to make my work with a dreamlike quality - slightly surreal. Is it a window view behind the teapots or a painting? You can decide.
I am playing with new and different palettes. I rather like this one, it's warm and comforting like a cup of tea.
The work is framed and ready to hang.

In this acrylic painting, I’ve explored the bright, inviting essence of an orange, pairing its vivid color with a contrasting purple background. By isolating and highlighting the fruit’s rich hues and intricate textures, I wanted to draw attention to the often-overlooked beauty of everyday life. The composition of whole and sliced segments captures both the form and the freshness of the orange, encouraging viewers to pause and appreciate its natural vibrancy. Through this study of color and contrast, I aim to evoke a sense of joy and warmth in the simple yet striking subject.
