New Abstract Drip Painting on 178 cm Canvas

Rich/ / Original Art

I’ve just finished this huge canvas painting. These completely abstract drip and splash paintings are some of my favourite ones to paint. I keep adding layers of colour until I’m happy with the result, creating unique paintings that all have their own energy and character.

I use water-based paints that I dilute to just the right consistency. They have a silk finish to them (approximately half way between matt and gloss) and once dry they are fairly flexible. This means that I can roll the un-stretched canvas up to send to you in a strong cardboard tube. Furthermore, when you then get the canvas stretched over a wooden frame to display it the paint doesn’t tend to crack or flake around the edges of your wooden stretcher frame.

Custom Size Black, White and Blue Flower Painting

Rich/ / Original Art

My most common size of painting on an un-stretched canvas is 160 cm x 112 cm. Over time I have found that this is quite a popular size for people looking for a large abstract painting. However, it is also possible for me to paint different size canvases, to suit a particular area of wall space that you have.

One of the designs I have features black and white flower stems and various blue flower heads. I was recently asked whether I could paint a similar picture but on a smaller canvas. Initially the customer requested that the un-stretched canvas measures 130 cm wide and 90 cm high. I explained to the customer that once she has had the canvas stretched on to a wooden stretcher frame by her picture framer the final size of stretched painting is normally a few centimetres smaller. We therefore agreed that I would paint an un-stretched canvas measuring 135 cm wide and 95 cm high.

This is the painting that I created for her. It was great to hear from the customer that she has just received this painting from the courier. She’s about to take the canvas to her picture framer to get it stretched on to a wooden frame.

Blue dot and spot seascape on 244 cm wide canvas

Rich/ / Original Art

Colourful small dots and spots of paint cover this huge painting. I wanted to include lots of blue paint especially. I think it hints at a seascape, but you are encouraged to interpret this painting however you wish. This un-stretched canvas measures 244 cm x 112 cm. Perhaps you have a large blank wall that you feel would really benefit from a big splash of colour? I’m currently working on another canvas of this size. The style of painting is very similar but I think with a sunset-inspired combination of colours. I will add it to my website here when it’s finished!

Yellow Star Painting in a Custom Size

Rich/ / Original Art

A former customer, who had previously bought a large tree painting, recently asked me if I could paint one of my yellow stars for her. She was looking for a square canvas measuring 70 cm by 70 cm to fit a particular wall space in her home. I was able to make a canvas to that size, stretched over a wooden frame. She collected this painting from me at lunchtime today and also bought a slightly larger yellow flower painting as well. It was lovely to be sent these photos of the paintings now on display in her home.

Customer Showcase Photos of Two Paintings

Rich/ / Original Art

Last weekend a customer collected two paintings from me. He used a van to transport them as the larger painting of the two measures 235 cm wide. The smaller abstract painting consists of a multitude of vertical lines and stripes and the larger painting features a dot and spot style of paint application. Both paintings are very colourful and expressive! I stretched both the canvases on to wooden frames for him so they were ready to hang on his wall – he just needed to add his own picture hooks to the back of the paintings. It was great to hear that their dog is also a fan of the new art! More customer showcase photos of mine can be seen here.

Yellow Flower Meadow Drip Painting

Rich/ / Original Art

Today I finished this really large flower painting. The canvas measures 195 cm x 112 cm. I’ve dripped a wide range of colours on to the canvas in a vertical direction and this has been followed by lots of dots and spots of paint to create the flower heads. The flowers are predominantly shades of yellow, but with a range of other colours too. In these floral landscapes I normally like the flowers to reach up to the top at both ends and then dip down in the middle. This allows an area of clear sky to be seen in the middle of the painting and creates a sense of space. Very large paintings like this will immediately bring lots of colour in to your room.

Custom Size Dot Painting on Stretched Canvas

Rich/ / Original Art

This morning my customer collected this painting from me. He had commissioned me to paint this dot and spot painting on a 210 cm x 135 cm stretched canvas. It is in fact his fourth painting from me. I’m able to supply my paintings already stretched on to wooden frames if you can collect from me in south Somerset. Otherwise, I normally send my paintings to you via couriers as un-stretched canvases, rolled up in strong cardboard tubes.

If you can collect from me near the town of Yeovil, south Somerset, I can often stretch the canvas on to a wooden frame for you. This means that all you then need to do is attach your own picture hooks to the back of the wooden frame of the stretched canvas in order to hang it on your wall.

One such local customer collected a tree painting from me two days ago. This very expressive tree features many different colours, especially orange and yellow. The painting measures 120 cm x 100 cm x 3 cm. Yesterday the customer sent me this photo of the painting, showing it on display in her home.
