Painting, Fine Art Photography, Sculpture & Print Making
The pressure, the speed and energy of a brushstroke or any sort of applied mark is the second most frustratingly out of reach yet important aspect of pursuit in my work. My aim is to make a work that will evolve with you and your life and not remain static. Although it is usually nature that is the starting point, the subject of a painting, photograph or print is becoming less important and capturing that elusive “essence”, that moves us, is what my work is increasingly prioritising.
Equally happy working in the landscape with a canvas tied to the side of his wife’s horse lorry, or lying on the ground photographing the reflection in a puddle. Printmaking at the Curwen Press Cambridge or recently making a bronze sculpture, George seems to take an interdisciplinary approach to his work. Recent experiments with Photoshop and the fusing together of painted, drawn and photographic elements seem like an opening well worth pursuing.

So enjoying the positive vibes reaching us from across the pond. The wintery anthropomorphic, gnarly hedgerows continue to provide proper metaphors for these times. However I thought a good contrast would be to share how it felt to stand on a blazing bright sandy beach in #scotland only a few months ago. #hope #paintingforsale #oilpainting #englishcountryside #scottishlandscape #englishlandscape #paintingoftheday #painting🎨 #isleofcolonsay #westernisles
For Sale. 24” x 24” Oil on board. Unframed. Forced to paint inside because of a very wet day. An interior painting with objects (mussel shells picked from the shore beyond) and a landscape with the reflection of a fire 🔥 in the window. #cosy #interior #landscape #stilllife #paintingforsale #lochtorridon #scottishlandscape #oilpainting
Painting for Sale. DM for price. 40” x 60” Splashing around today with some ink, watercolour, gouache, oil pastel and chalk bars. I started this on site a couple of months ago but how ever many stones were laid on the sheet it just kept wanting to head skywards. #watercolour #watercolourpainting #ink #mixedmedia #landscape #paintingoftheday #isleofcolonsay #colonsay #westernisles #georgeirvine #paintingforsale
Painting for sale. SOLD. ‘Sunrise 11.01.21’ Oil on board. 14” x 14” DM for price. I’ve been doing fast 1 hour walks since new year and am excited by not only the notable increase in fitness but by the wintertime landscape. The light has been tremendous and this morning everything glowed orange as soon as the sun popped up. And I thought that there was some warmth in those rays. #oilonboard #paintingforsale #georgeirvine #sunrise #winterlandscape #buyapainting #oxfordshirelandscape #paintingoftheday SOLD

Saw 🪚 this on a cut tree stump today. Have always been interested by the way we can only see The Duck 🦆 or only see the rabbit 🐇 but not both at the same time. #visualperception
Today I made a sculpture that only needed a tiny bit of building. All the pieces were there as if it had had a great fall and needed putting together again. #sculpture #readymade #ephemeral #figurative
