Naked Ladies Paintings For Sale

Naked Ladies

Naked Lady painting for sale in lingerie stockings and suspenders and basque

Naked ladies paintings are a one apart from the rest of my painting series. There are so many reasons for this and it works on so many levels. But for all my reasons you can’t get away from the fact that the paintings are just straightforward sexy. Shapes and curves of naked ladies are unforgettable, unmistakable and deeply embedded in the mind from as far back as history goes. These shapes and forms are fundamental to human survival just like the air we breathe.

I love painting the naked ladies paintings because the form is so simple and flowing that it really frees up the canvas to explore some deep and luscious colours and textures. Within the canvas I take the naked ladies as the form within which I can fit a beautiful and elegant abstract colour combination. In some of the paintings the naked form can be hidden within this elegant display and in others the form is most obvious and shapely.

Many interior designers commission some of the more abstract naked ladies paintings to

Naked Lady painting in lingerie stockings and suspenders and basque

grace the walls of many elegant historic houses. It is the deep reads in the paintings that many designers seek, to match the colour scheme in traditionally decorated house of such deeply coloured walls. These paintings add a real richness and depth of colour to the wall and their semi abstract nature adds a tasteful and interesting focus point to the wall which will always be a talking point when your guests really work out what they are looking at. These luscious deep red paintings also make a great painting to brighten any boudoir.

This series of naked lady paintings is all about Basques, stockings and suspenders. The paintings are all about shape, suspense and intrigue. Suspenders and stockings accentuate the natural curves of the female body, the straight lines work well against the natural flowing curves of the body. The lingerie and Basques provide an exciting element of suspense concealing the body from full view. In its natural form the body can be quite

Red hot nude painting for sale with basque and stockings. Sexy

gentle and delicate but the partial concealment of the form changes all of this into another arena. These simple shape forms provoke such intense feelings and this is replicated in the paint and texture of the paintings. Deep colours of crimson red, magenta, purple and hot blues all make for a powerful painting full of life and depth. I have to admit these are my favourite paintings to paint as they are such a challenge. Simple flowing shapes unlike a complicated landscape which leaves the brush free to concentrate on the colours and textures of the paintings to create the evocative form emerging from a sea of colour.

Take a look at the naked ladies paintings for sale on the site.

The Essence of Pleasure Distilled into Paintings For Sale.

The Essence of Pleasure Distilled into Paintings For Sale.

My paintings are all about the ultimate joy in life which we can feel. They work to try to capture the joy and feelings of upliftment which we al seek to find through whatever we are doing.

oil painting on canvas for sale, inspired by the starting line up for Caribbean RORC 600 race from last year in Antigua

We all love to have fun, enjoy life, smile and be happy. Behind these emotions is a beauty which we can access at these special and rare times of pure pleasure, in whatever place or activity it may be.

I have spent much of my life chasing this illusive and special beauty which we feel in our times of joy and happiness; from the Himalayas, to the Pacific islands, from hedonistic skiing in the alps to sailing and surfing in the Caribbean, from spiritual gurus to beautiful women, from sunning in the Indian Ocean to blissful meditating in the depths of Asia’s spiritual heritage.

I have chased this nugget of gold all round the world and it has been a lot of fun, it’s a really great job to have to do, but someone has to!

I always have my camera or paint brush to hand to capture these moments of pure happiness. When I hit on a particularly rich seam of pleasure, happiness, joy and fun I rush in to capture its essence. In these images and especially the paintings I have strived to distil this illusive path to joy and pleasure into a concentrated form. In my paintings I have used special techniques of light and dark, sparkling colours, inspirational brush strokes, gold and silver leaf and everything else which can stimulate these feelings of upliftment and pleasure. I try to produce a link from beyond the physical to make images which replicate these feelings in the paintings, once I have returned home. Fun, joy, happiness and pleasure rule the waves and oceans, so take a look at the painting to see if it works for you. It does for me. I love my paintings, do you?

Check out the paintings for sale on the web site from colourful tropical sunset oil paintings to skiing in the frozen mountain tops. This year I am moving towards painting larger paintings for sale as they give me so much fun. You really feel like you are sucked into the paintings when you stand in front of them, especially the sunsets. This winter will see my first large skiing and snowboarding paintings released for sale. Most of the ski paintings for sale over the last few years have been small and make great collections for the wall. This year I will take on the challenge to make a very big ski painting for the wall. Check out the facebook page or the blog this winter for more paintings for sale as they are released.

New Large Sunset Painting For Sale

Very Large Paintings For Sale of Sunsets

New Large Sunset Painting For Sale

As One Paintings gets shipped out so another is just about ready. The large sunset painting on the wall of the studio is all complete and framed up ready for everyone to have a look at it. It is 1.5m wide by 1.0m high and framed with a high quality just off white block frame. Its about the same size as the one in the box ready to ship which you can see in the photo. The price of £750 includes shipping in the UK and parts of Europe and the frame. If you are interested in commissioning a large painting email Pete. This painting has been specially created to give you a bright and happy feeling with the sun and light drawing you into the centre of the painting, using a combination of colour and light to give you an uplifting effect.

This sunset painting is based on a West coast sunset from North Devon UK near the studio. The studio is very near to the ocean which lends a big influence to the paintings. Every day I cycle into the rising sun in the morning and the setting sun on the headland on the way to the studio to paint. This constant exposure to the sunsets and sun rises over the ocean lends itself beautifully to these large sunset oil paintings.

I use bold colour to its utmost to fill the paintings with a sense of joy and light. Combinations of bright colours in their pure form create vibrant memorable images. Pinks turquoises, blues and yellows work to construct an impression of the scene which captures not just the visual but much of the joy, energy and feelings to captivate the viewer. These large paintings are becoming a popular choice for collectors of art and paintings around the world.

Large Paintings For sale

Large Painting for sale — Painting a Large Painting in the outdoor studio.

Large Paintings For Sale

Very large paintings for sale, the larger the better and they look stunning on any wall. You can browse through the various painting genres and sizes on the site Sunsets, Oceans, Skiing, Sunflowers and Indian. We often paint these to commission to fit the size you want for your room and loosely base the painting on one of Pete’s other paintings.

There are two main types of large paintings:

Very Large Sunset Paintings have a central theme which pull you into the painting. Based around sunsets or low sun scenes, the light of the sun in the centre of the paintings and the colour combinations naturally draw you into the paintings, giving them a magnetic and uplifting quality.

Very Large paintings which are more abstract in nature or of a scene with no obvious central pull. These aren’t so obvious at the first look but can provide an interesting feature to look at over time with the eyes discovering new parts and hidden features & meaning within the painting over time.

The large paintings vary from 0.7m x 1m up to 1.5m x 1.2m. If you would like a bigger painting than this, please ask as we do occasionally have them for exhibition or you can order one by commission on the medium & colour of your choice.

Most modern houses have a ceiling height of between 2.1m & 2.3m. So if you want a painting to fit above the sofa then you are limited usually to 1.0m x 0.8m or 1.2m x 1.0m.

1.0 x 0.8m A painting of 1.0m x 0.8m will fit in most modern houses and is the smallest of the large paintings. It will fit in landscape format above the sofa.

1.2m x 1.0m is lovely but if you have a modern house with low ceilings mark this size on the wall to check its okay. This again should just fit in most modern houses just above the sofa, but check first. 1.2m x 0.8m or 1.2m x 0.6m are possible sizes which you may have to order if we don’t have in stock.

1.2m x 1.2m is also a good option and the square format works well as a piece on its own.

1.5m x 1.2m really is big and looks amazing. We don’t stock many of these so you may want to commission one. Choose an image you like and ask if we can do a bigger version for you. Copies of paintings are never the same, they are totally original. We keep the colour scheme and the general feel of the painting, but in the spirit of the way Pete paints, each one is inspired differently.

Large colourful oil painting for sale — Large Colourful painting for sale in outdoor painting studio

To work with the decor in your room we do paint some larger paintings to commission to a specific size and medium. You can choose deep block canvas or on board so that you can frame the painting.

Another technique to get a large painting is by choosing a smaller painting such as a 50cm x 70cm and then having the image professionally mounted and framed so a 50 x 70 painting becomes a 80 x 100cm painting. This has the added effect of using the mount and frame to tone the painting into your room and the framing can make it look truly amazing. We do not frame to this standard here, you need to find a good local framer and choose the frame with professional advice.

Shipping.

We ship these large paintings securely all over Europe for free. Once your painting is over 1m wide it is very difficult to fit the painting in the car. 1.2m paintings rarely fit

in cars so shipping by courier is usually the best option even if you visit the studio, unless you are visiting in a campervan / caravan . If you do visit the studio and are desperate to take a large painting with you we do have ways of fitting them in, but courier is the easiest method to get them home.

Skiing Snowboard Paintings for sale by commission

Skiing Snowboard Paintings for sale by commission

Take a look at the painting process for the skiing snowboard paintings for sale by commission to personalise your skiing snowboard painting to include yourself in your favourite scene.

Last winter I had the most fabulous time painting a ski painting commission, a lot of fun because it was a real challenge. I got an email from an Irish man working in Japan who wanted a ski painting for a present for his wife who was still back in Ireland. The painting was on the glacier above Val d’Isere, a stunning place on top of the word. I have thousands of photos I use as reference for ski paintings of runs in a lot of the top European Ski resorts, especially the highest runs. But this one eluded me. Of the 1000 photos I had of Tignes and Val d’Isere, one of my top favourite ski areas, I could not find anything on this run.

I asked the client if he had any images of the runs on the Glacier. No luck so I had to piece it together from memory. I had skied the glacier many times in December and the weather had not been so kind with mostly blizzards and low cloud. I could remember the runs down in the gullies and the off piste pipes under the chair and a picture slowly emerged in my mind. Several days later I had a more or less full recollectionn of the scene and managed to pin down the area where the painting was to be. It was low down on one of the runs where the client had proposed to his wife many years ago, but no photos of this event existed . Many emails were exchanged and I built up a picture of the time of day the weather and where they were on the run. If you have skied this run, then you know it is quite a featureless area and with a dump of fresh powder the night before there was not much in the scene that I could work with. I need people, strong landmarks and contrast to make scenes work well. This was devoid of everything I use to make an interesting ski painting. The texture and colours hidden in the snow were going to be the making of the painting and expansiveness of the scene relative to the people.

The final email before I started painting was an amusing mock up photo of the male client proposing to his male work colleague so I could get the positioning of him and his wife right. A few photos of him and his wife in their ski gear at that time were the final clues I needed before I started.

This was such a tricky painting that I did not ask for a deposit as I wasn’t sure if it would work and I didn’t want the pressure of having a commitment to get it right so the deal was – if you like it you can buy it and if not no problem. It turned out to be so much fun to do as the client was very helpful in advising alterations to get the scene just as he remembered it.

The last job I had to do was to check what his wife’s favourite colours were to make sure she would at least like the colour scheme. Baby blue and baby pink were the colours so this would serve as part of the underlay of the painting with the white snow on top.
