Flaming Robes

On this day I was feeling the gentleness of the light. A slight coolness in the air and the softness of the clouds over the sea.

I was asked yesterday about the emotional aspect of these works. They were all created between lockdowns in the UK. As restrictions eased a friend and I would go out plein air painting on the beach. This painting encompasses both freedom and an underlying turmoil and disturbance. It's beauty is like a breath of fresh air.

This painting on a postcard card, 300 g/m is part of a series begun during Lockdown in the UK. It is painted on a postcard as a metaphor for keeping in touch with friends and family. A way to stay connected during a time of social isolation.

As I begin to mint my full Catalogue Raisonné of artwork on the blockchain I realise that the task ahead will take at least five years even if I mint one every day. Because I am doing this for posterity the initial price will be low and the royalty high. The editions will be low but large enough for some collectors to have the opportunity to collect all of my work. I believe I am the first or one of the first artists to use the blockchain and NFTs as a Catalogue Raisonné.
