To get the best effect of these waves you need to be in front of them. Then you see and feel them rolling and moving forward. So I placed them in a Virtual Gallery where I hope you can enjoy them more.

This is another new painting on 15 stretched canvases. My intention was to go somewhere else with lots of colour. Suddenly this monochrome painting appeared which is nothing like I expected. However this image surprised and delighted me going far beyond what I had imagined. A painting has a life of its own.

This is another new mixed medium acrylic painting on A2 paper. These have an obvious Dekooning influence which I gladly accept. I do know that meeting Dekooning along my journey was most beneficial although I remember I did spend time with him earlier in my career.

This is another new painting on 300 gsm paper. To me it has the feel of Cubism however it is a spontaneous release of Emotional Expressionism. It is too soon to decide what might happen from here.
