Quick oil portrait in my sketchbook using some of the new @mhoilpaints oils Sunset Orange, Magenta and Imperial Purple.
RIP David Hockney. Thanks for all the inspiration, colour, humour and art.

It's not that we don't have fascists, we do! But you'll never see ours trying to paint this bad boy on shops or roundabouts. Maybe the England flag needs an upgrade to something you'd at least need a GCSE in art to attempt it.

There’s a great story in today’s Times on the psychological benefits of looking at art. You and I, dear art lovers, know this already!
But the story is interesting because it gives a scientific context to more ancient beliefs about why we make art.

Portrait of Dr Katy Munro of the @NatMigraineCtr as part of my new project of painting people who either suffer with or support those who have migraines. Oil on canvas, 100x80cm
A speedy timelapse of how my recent portrait oil sketch came together. 1.5hrs reduced to 23 seconds. Enjoy!
Oil sketch painted as a demonstration explaining a more traditional approach to portraiture, keeping in mind artists such as Velazquez, Van Dyck and Sargent. 50x40cm using Lead White, Ochre, Venetian Red and Raw Umber. #art #portrait #allaprima
A superb talk given by @arthistorynews last night for the Oxford Art Society Associates at Trinity College Oxford, all about the Invention of British Art. If only the lectures I attended at art school were anywhere near as good as this! #arthistory #art #britishart

'Fire Escape'
Back in #Manchester! A tad clean and gentrified for my usual tastes but a beautiful fire escape, lights and cobbles on Little David Street.
