Acrylic and UV (and obviously some spray paint too) on canvas, each piece measures 250×500. Both roses were created at the same time, from the same canvas batch, with the same paints, and the same pigments. There are subtle differences, more fraternal than identical. Both carry the same meaning, though.
Acrylic, Spray paint and UV pigments on Canvas. 600×700. This started out as a fairly realistic “globe view”. Spray paint wasn’t enough I decided to have some fun with the airbrush now I’ve worked out my UV recipe for it. Then I got a delivery of some new UV powder, and chose to play a …
Acrylic, Spray Paint, Various UV blends on Canvas. Diptych, 450×550. I’ve packed a lot into this relatively small piece. Some may be apparent under normal daylight.

Each rose represents a stage on the journey through Mental Health / Abuse. The commonality is “grief”, an appropriate theme for today’s painting. Artist’s interpretation I initially envisaged a series of themed …
Acrylic and UV Pigment on Canvas. 500×500. Sorry peeps, this one is an “in-joke”. Sorry, C – thanks for seeing the humour and not being offended. Just don’t let me do your hair and make-up should you and E decide to go Rocky Horror-ing. When I finished the mouth, I appear to have given him …
Acrylic and UV Reactive pigment on Canvas, 250×250. The button depicted is a Soviet Era “launch” button, with the button replaced by a clothing button, activated using a sewing needle. The text above the button (barely legible) reads “ВСТАВЬТЕ ПИН-код ДЛЯ ЗАПУСКА” – “Insert pin to launch” or “Insert Startup Pin” depending on how badly …
