Marmalade Sky is an abstract painting and part of my Sun & Moon series.  I was inspired to paint this when Saharan desert sand had unusually been blown to the UK.  The sand turned the sun light and sky into a deep orange similar to Marmalade.  I looked in wonder - I must paint this experience! 

My new painting evolved by the wonder of how the sun can take your breath away transporting you from a personal scale to the much larger scale of the solar system.  I attempt to capture those inspirational moments by interacting with the viewer with paint, colour and geometry.  I hope the painting will communicate a sense of wonder and peace.

The geometry has a calming energy and was found in a tile design in Seville.  The geometry of the picture forces my painting technique to be concentrated in a trance like state.  Inspection reveals subtle changes in colour allowing the viewer to hold their attention on the picture. 

I love sitting down and allowing the eye to flow over the painting. It has given me many hours of viewing pleasure.

The interior shots are illustrative photographs.  Please make sure the size is suitable for your own room.
