For those who weren't able to make it, here's a quick run through of my show. With 30 #paintings finding new homes, it was another very successful year @ Aro Gallery! Heartfelt thanks to everyone!

A large painting that I did some years ago has just sold to a New York collector. “Night Crossing”, 130X130cm. Probably the first painting where I began to sense the powerful combination of sea and sky. #inspiration #designerart #artist #painting

Another little #painting from my postie days. While I was out delivering the mail by motorbike, I would stop & set up my little #paint kit on the handlebars. There was always something interesting to paint! (Only during my rostered breaks of course... 😂 🏍) “Gwynne Street”.

The more I study clouds the more like landscapes they become. Columns and canyons, levels and layers, drifts and waterfalls… they are all there when you look closely. “Western Light”, 85X85cm, oil on polycotton. #oilpainting #richardclaremont #creative #painting #artgallery

New painting inspired by Stanwell Park. “Morning Tide”, 85X85cm, oil on linen. Most of my paintings have what I call a “weird bit”. It’s usually a section of underpainting that is so unique, that I can’t bear to cover it up even though it makes no sense in the finished painting.

A little painting I did of Welsh farm cottages last year, using a palette of just three colours. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to travel to the UK this year, so glad I have this to remind me! #australian #creative #inspiration #palette #painting #colours

“Minnamurra” has just gone to a new home this week. This week also marks 5 years since I have been a full time artist! I really appreciate my collectors who keep me painting. To do what I love every day is a dream come true 😁🎨🙏🏻. #landscapepaintings #minnamurra #kiama

One of my favourite painting subjects is urban architecture. Shiny surfaces which reflect nature. Man made and organic forms side by side. I used a warm and cool palette together to reinforce the juxtaposition... “William St Sunset”, 35X45cm, oil on board. #painting #artgallery

Here they are folks, all 30 paintings from the month’s #thirtybythirtybythirty Challenge! 😁 I can’t wait to progress some of these new subjects further. I already have heaps of ideas for new paintings, but I’m interested to know… Which ones did you like most? Comment below.
