Quayside
This is a study of part of the quay at Bideford. At that time, several fishing boats were moored. These boats, their bouys, nets, rigging, together with the attendant equipment laid out on the quay made for a complex composition. Played off against the detail of the quay area is the background of foliage and clean lined road bridge.
This painting gave me the chance to play off the fluid qualities of the river against the hard edges of the boats and quayside.
The far river qualities presented a different approach to capture the misty glassy quality reflecting elements of the bridge.
Pete Newell talks about his paintings discussing his methodology, composition and process.
Pete's paintings are all made using good quality acrylics on professional standard linen or cotton canvases such as those by Winsor and Newton. They have warp resistant kiln-dried, bevelled solid pine stretcher bars. The canvases are archival and acid free. Each painting is varnished with appropriate acrylic varnish and simply framed by Pete. The frames are easily removed if a purchaser wishes to re-frame a painting.
The paintings on this website are all nautical or maritime in their subject matter. Pete does have paintings embracing other subjects and he can show you these using either Google Meet, Zoom or WhatsApp.
His paintings are all for sale. Selling is an interesting point for artists. Pete's belief is that "painting is communication and that to complete the creative circle one's art needs to have an audience to communicate to." The act of selling is to complete that creative circle.
