#PayingArtists Experiment
Naval Battle between Japan and Russia 1905
Acrylic on board
40 x 40cm
Based on a Japanese woodcut, the painting shows two kinds of explosion which, in the original painting, reminded me of Manga comics.

The Paying Artists campaign on Twitter is really worth supporting and should be noted particularly by galleries and museums that get national funding.
In support of this I am offering my paintings for one week only at a flat rate of £350, till 18th July. Painting is new to me -I use many other firms including installation, sculpture, performance, photography, and often don't gave a marketable product. I've been lucky with Arts Council funding, which has been terrific in enabling me to make and show non commercial stuff.
But I love the idea that someone might own something I've made, so for this week there's a painting sale on my site.
