Acrylic painting from a photo with the kind permission of Ashir Parikh, on the flickr site.
I just loved the photo and it gave me a new colour palette to work with.

Looming out of the mist. I love mosques. I have continued the painting round the sides of the box canvas so it does not need framing.

I was so inspired by Istanbul! Not a slavish copy of anything I saw but this was for the fun of painting the cypress trees to echo the minarets.

My bikes are improving I think! Collaged areas, mainly behind the bike give a sense of place and, I think, add intrigue.
Lots of collaged text in this one.
As experimental as most of my experiments I have tried a layering technique here, with lots of dribbly inks and shreds of printed stuff. Smell the coffee!
Lots of texture in the walls.
These pictures are all sold. They are all collage/mixed media with a very distressed frame! - and glass. Many have been commissions - others have been sold at exhibitions. Click to enlarge because it is worth seeing all the signs and notices which I have photographed and used many times in my collages. They say quite a lot about India today. The high rise buildings depict the contrasts of wealth and poverty. Whenever I think I won’t do another of these pictures, someone asks for one which is why there are so many.

- Collage
These pictures began with newspapers which I collected around India. I love the different scripts and I soon found a use for them as high rise buildings.
