Town San Gimignano The subject matter came from my travels in Italy where the ancient walls offer a wonderful opportunity to recreate the textures on buildings that time has produced. Anything Italian is very popular with the art audience. Available as a print.
Town All About the WaterMill The second of a pair of paintings depicting water mills. The idea came from an old photo of mills I took while travelling in France in the 1980s. In this painting I tried to create a sense of a community of buildings grouped around the function of running a mill.
Town Tuscan Steps The idea for the painting came from my interest in Italian buildings and the wonderful play between light and texture. This painting has been very popular as a print. Available as a print.
People Bendigo Secrets Visiting my home city of Bendigo, Central Victoria, Australia, I came across this group of buildings and saw the potential for an interesting painting.
Town Malvern Townscape A fun painting of Malvern done in the genre style which I enjoy so much. A commission work for a friend whose son was moving house across the street. Unfortunately I painted them moving into the wrong house!!
Town Italian Village There is a wonderful beauty in the Italian buildings with the centuries of ageing on the stones. I love painting them and implying the stories the buildings could tell. Available as a print.
Town A Little Bit of Italy Inspired by a photo of some cats on a wall in an Italian village visited whilst travelling in Europe. It was one of my first attempts to render the rich texture found on European buildings and walls. Available as a print.
Town The Old Watermill The idea to paint water mills came from an old photo of mills I took while travelling in France in the 1980s. The walls are so rich with the passing of time and I had a wonderful time creating the texture. The water lilies were added to give a touch of colour.
Town Elsternwick Townscape Inspired by the lovely Melbourne suburb of Elsternwick with its Victorian terrace houses and quaint shops.
People Backyard Frieze Backyard Frieze by Anne Newman. This painting is one of my very first efforts and shows my love of backyards and the lives of ordinary people. It is done in a naive style.
