I am an artist painting in oils and I live in Bristol, UK.  I used to live in Cape Town, South Africa and part of my heart is forever there.

I paint small oil paintings in alla prima style or direct painting.   I paint anything that catches my eye, but mostly fruit and vegetables.     They are framed in white and are 8 x 8” square.  Customers sometimes also buy sets of 3  which go well in their kitchens.   I buy most of the produce for my artworks from local organic greengrocers Hugo’s Greengrocers up the road from where I live.  I love bright cheery colours and we all need some of that in our lives.     You can see all of my recent work on my Instagram account @michewatkins and I have a link at the top of this page to a Catalogue of paintings that are available now.  I update this regularly.

However,  my true passion is in what I call my Line Art style.  These are large acrylic pieces and are sparer in detail, a single black outline with a little colour depending on the subject. I developed this style when I lived in Africa, a place which is always in my heart, and is probably the reason I so love the Line Art.   The swimming pool scenes featured in my Catalogue/Line Art pages are about being alone but never lonely.  I am drawn to sparseness and isolation, but also peace and joy and I think the two can run in tandem.   Please look at my Blog for more details.  These artworks are all 90 x 60cm unframed, on deep canvasses.
