Beetles

A Gateshead Art Society challenge on “Insects” set me off on a new idea this week, but before I start on a larger work, I decided I’d try out some ideas for single imaginary beetles. I rather like these and think they’d look good framed up. More to come, I expect.

The latest addition to my series of weathered and distressed doors. My Regular Reader will know of my red/green eyesight deficiency, so using so much red on this painting was something of a high wire act for me.

This painting has been hanging around for a while, awaiting a resolution. Somehow it resolved itself, almost by accident. While it’s not what I expected it to be, I’m pleased with it and am offering it for sale under the Artist Support Pledge. It’s £200, including UK postage. If you’re interested, please leave a comment or email me.
