Touchdown!

I’ve been asked many times for the inspiration behind Touchdown! and its companion work, ‘Washing the Hare’…

Well, I guarantee that if you walk the rolling fields of the Wiltshire Downs for long enough, you’ll see a Hare… Even if it’s just the sight of its backside as it sprints across the field! On this particular Spring day, I came across this character bouncing across an open stretch of field. Immediately, I thought of how this might work as a painting. When the time came, I painted him in a loose, casual style. After that, a finishing touch came from liberal use of an acrylic pen, to add movement.

  • Prints

    I use either archival Fine-Art paper or Hahnemuhle cotton canvas (Rolled & UnStretched). They come in a few sizes:  Mini: An Open Edition, that’s hand-monogrammed on the Matte.  Small: As for Mini.   Standard: Ready-mounted & signed in an edition of #95.   Larger: Un-Mounted & signed. Strictly printed-to-order.  Frames shown for illustrative purposes only.
