'Light Bulb' - still life oil painting by Matthew Allton

'Light Bulb'

I had sketched out a lightbulb in pencil on a tiny piece of ACEO sized Arches L'huile paper months and months ago.

I never got around to completing it, but finally did so in August.

Its executed in normal oil paints, and measures a tiny 3.5 x 2.5 inches

'Charlecote Park' - small oil painting by Matthew Allton

'Charlecote Park'

I decided to paint a corner of Charlecote Park that I'd taken a photo of a few years ago.It was painted in February.

At 17 x 12 cms on Arches Huile paper it was difficult to get too much detail in it, but after perseverance its turned out ok.

'Red Apple' - still life oil painting by Matthew Allton

'Red Apple'

This still life in oil paints, on Arches L'huile paper, was painted in January and measured approximately 17 x 11.5 cms.

I worked from a photograph that I took, to enable me to work without the apple going brown over time.
