About The Artist

My work combines abstraction and realism, containing references to specific places, objects.

I seek for more than the 'everyday familiar vision of things' and focus on exploring the interaction of colour, form, texture and conceptual space using watercolour, acrylics, pastel, and at times a combination of these.

Following art college I worked as a graphic designer in London, Essex and Bristol. For the last few decades I've painted full time and my studio is now based in Surrey.

Education

Diploma in Graphic Design ( Barking Regional College of Technology and School of Art)
Awarded LSIA (Publicity Design)
BA Hons Art History ­Open University
Painting­ Open College of Arts

Titanium

This is a one-of-a-kind original impressionist abstract painted by myself using acrylic paints on canvas.

Its pure white titanium white flower buds really stand out against the silver stems, especially with the multi-coloured abstract background.
I used a palette knife along with the hand-made abstract paint on each flower giving them an Impasto 3D effect, which also adds a unique character jumping off the canvas. I also paint the edges of the canvas so they match the painting rather than leaving them just white, so no frame is required.

Image Size: 23.5″ x 16.4″ x .7″
Art Medium: Palette Knife Impasto using Acrylic Paint
Brass D-rings to rear with brass wire, so ready to hang on your wall. If you wish me to sign the rear of the painting, please let me know prior to posting.

About The Artist

A little about me and how and why I paint.

When I see a canvas, I never get artist's block, I see my next great adventure starting. I'm on a journey without a plan that is constantly evolving. Each brush or palette knife stroke turns into something wonderful that eventually turns into a painting. That Is true art to me, rather than planning every step of the way, but who am I to say?

I am new to painting compared to many other artists and totally self-taught. I never studied at art school and have no art qualifications, but does that make my art unworthy? Can I even call myself an artist? I guess we all have to start somewhere but at least I'm honest enough to admit it and still place great love and passion into every painting I paint.

I have used every painting medium available but found my true love in acrylics. I started painting all sorts of things including trees, waterfalls, fields, sunsets etc. until my wife asked me to paint her a flower painting.
"Paint flowers!" I said, but I gave it a go, and surprisingly my wife was pleased. Since then, I have developed a unique way of painting flowers which I absolutely love. I mix my own heavy-bodied abstract paint and paint Impasto-style impressionist flowers.

Pink Buds Abstract Floral Art - Reigate Artist Gary Meeke

Darling Buds

This abstract flower painting is a very bold impression of pretty pink bulbs ready to burst into life.
I used very heavy abstract paint so everything really lifts off the canvas, giving an abstract impasto 3D effect that is lovely to touch as well as to view. I never paint the same painting twice, so you will have a one-of-a-kind original painting.
Why not add a touch of floral artwork to your home or office. It’s also the perfect gift for your relatives and friends.

Flower Basket

This Impasto abstract flower basket painting was completed using only a palette knife. I used very bold and heavy abstract paint so each colour really lifts off the canvas, especially the flower petals, giving an abstract Impasto 3D effect that is lovely to touch as well as to view.
