More of those Electric Paintings – Wire, Black Sabbath, Henry Cow, Aphrodite’s Child…

“Never Say Die – Electric Painting No. 24” (August 2022) – Acrylic on canvas, 20cm x 20cm x 1cm

I am being very picky about the albums chosen here, this is an ongoing series of Electric Paintings, fast interpretations, pieces painted during the time it takes to listen to a very electric album just once. I’m rather enjoying the challenge of this series so far, the series started as a reaction to the “Electric” theme of the May 2022 Art Car Boot Fair. The series has now gone on beyond the fair, there has now been 28 paintings, I expect at least double that number and the subject is explored a little more.

The original paintings are being held back for an exhibition, there are limited edition prints being made available. I expect there to be quite a few more paintings before the summer ends, the full series so far can be viewed here and the series will go on with an exhibition happening later in the year when there are enough paintings.

I am being very (very) picky, it does need to be electric, I have to really want to do it. People are asking if they can commssion paintings, well in theory yes, but it has to be something I really want to paint and want to listen to, so everything that has been requested so far I’ve had to say no to, you can try though…
