The impact of the tree growing out of the oval mask makes this picture. A variety of techniques were used in this wet-on-wet painting. Palette knife, oval brushes, fan brushes and although I have improved in technique since this painting it is still one of my favourites.

Hidden Moon
Waterfall in the Forest
This painting works better on the screen than in real life as the dark texture needs a strong light to bring out the best in it. There is a great amount of detail in the foliage which is not immediately apparent.
Beach with Lighthouse
The sky and the foreground are excellent. Compare foreground with that on Turquoise Beach above and the difference is startling. The perspective of the lighthouse confuses the eye as it does not taper sufficiently towards the top and appears to lean towards the viewer.
