2026 .. Its been four years since my last post on here, just to update, i left my publisher, Washington Green Fine Art (Castle Galleries) back in 2013 and went on to sign with Demontfort Fine Art (Whitewall Galleries) later that year, (now Clarendon Fine Art ), however, as of January 2026, i am a free man, self publishing once again and enjoying every minute of it.

Bear Hug 40"x 30"

Missing you 40"x 30"

Don't get me started 20"x 20"

Its been a while , shown above are two recent oil paintings and one from last year ( Dont get me started ) , the title "Don't get me started" was suggested by a chap i met at a show after i described the painting to him , i really like it , its good to add a little humour so thanks to him .
I have quite few shows coming up and will put the details up soon , thanks to the those who have "Liked" me on Facebook , I'm probably the only person on the planet who doesn't use it so i thought i had better get with it ! , i suppose it will grow on me in time .
I haven't been painting as much recently , "not intentionally" ive just slowed to a crawl for some reason , i suppose its good to slow down or leave it for a while every now and again , ill come back refreshed and all that . Click a image to enlarge

DOWN HILL RACER : Original oil 20" x 20" available direct , keithproctor@live.co.uk

There is a lot of paint on this one , i recently started using super heavy gesso which is basically a thick white primer used to prepare the canvas before painting , i apply it with a pallet knife , let it dry and then coloured the surface blue and green before painting .
To paint the snow i used Titanium white mixed with Turquoise and a large flat brush , snow changes colour throughout the day reflecting the colour of the sky and it looked Turquoise, the red sledge is the opposite of green and the blue of his wellies is the opposite to the orange of his hands , happy with this :)

Close Encounter / Original oil 24" x 24"

This is a recent original oil painting , i did a few preparatory sketches first which i don't normally do , i think it did help, a while ago i completed a similar painting to this but though i would try again , i wanted a little more dry brush , a little more warmth and very loose brush strokes so had to be confident and quick , "looks simple" but effective i hope , i am pleased with it , never totally happy though , i think that's what keeps most "Artists / Painters" going .
It is for sale and available direct : please email keithproctor@live.co.uk for details .

Watching you ,watching me ..... Oil on canvas 40" x 30" Sold

The large painting shown above was completed a few months ago , it was one of a number i did of Jack and Ted along with some of Rubie , Lily or Sadie and Ted , i have put Ted to bed so to speak "for now anyway" , one thing about Ted is he doesn't grow any older , i mean in size , obviously he is getting on a little but he isn't getting any bigger so he will always be there to paint "as is" , so i can go back and paint Ted any time i like .
Jack is now seven and has out grown the little "Jack the lad" look , i feel quite sad to have left that little fella behind but at the same time i am very proud to see him growing up into the lovely little boy he is , i have his black engine drivers hat hanging on the wall in the studio and it looks very lonely indeed .
I still have a massive amount of photos of him from when he was around 4 years old so i will use them as reference material for some time yet , i have recently done about 10 paintings of him age seven , they are of him fishing and generally messing about on the river , most of them are set in the early evening with the sun setting behind him which gives a nice reflection in the water and a silhouette appearance to Jack , ( i will post one on here soon ) i am pleased with them and will be doing a few more.
I have 11 exhibitions planned before Christmas starting with Glasgow on the 29th September so will post the details on here soon .

Jack
