 Gary Yeomans Artist 

I have always painted, until recently work, mortgages etc got in the way.  Now I have retired to the country. I paint full time.   We have three acres in a rural village in the New England region of NSW. We are keen Gardners and have a substantial vegetable patch. We preserve a lot of food, by drying, freezing, bottling etc.  I have a music studio in my house and I write songs, and release them on Soundcloud. 

I like the idea of a painting telling a story, to remind me of things. For example I like to paint seascapes, and put a kid  in investigating the rock pools, and stuff like that. Because it takes me back to when school holidays seemed wonderfully endless. I like to paint landscapes, I always like them to have animals or people in them, for story to be happening. The thing for me that is magic. That I get a kick from it every time, is being able to make a mark with a brush, in a specific way, in a specific mix of colour. When you look at it close up it?s just a blob of paint, but when you step back it magically becomes a group of people sitting around a camp fire or, whatever.  It is like I have made a suggestion with my paint brush, and your mind joins in and makes up the story. So it is partly your story. That never gets old for me. 

My favourite painting is in The Sydney Gallery It is called  Spring Frost by Ellioth Gruner, he is an artist I like very much, I have recently discovered Brian Cook a transplanted Yorkshireman. Who lived in Queensland. I watched videos of Brian panting, and the penny dropped, I saw him put paint on a canvas with a pallet knife and make detail appear in the painting that was not actually there. Brian would be my greatest influence at this time. But I am a sponge, and I am constantly looking at artists and trying different things.
