Product Details
Our luxuriously soft beach towels are made from brushed microfiber with a 100% cotton back for extra absorption. The top of the towel has the image printed on it, and the back is white cotton. Our beach towels are available in two different sizes: beach towel (32" x 64") and beach sheet (37" x 74").
Don't let the fancy name confuse you... a beach sheet is just a large beach towel.

Recently I have started getting interested in recording the energy of a stroke. These three are A2 in width and are compressed charcoal on heavy cartridge paper. I wanted to use compressed charcoal because you can't rub it out, causing me concentrate on the marks I was making.
This piece was created by taking the 'Frustration' drawing and overlaying it onto a scan of stained and tinted handmade watercolour paper, (the stained paper is predominantly green(ish)) I then applied various layer filters in Photoshop to revise and modify the colour.
I approach this stage as playtime, as it involves experimenting with combinations of filters to produce interesting effects, colours and textures. Tthe results are very often startling and somewhat unexpected.
I started off in fine art, by going to Wakefield School of Art and then St Martins in London to do Sculpture, I have spent most of my time (after going to Camberwell School of Art for a Graphics degree) doing graphic design, working through various sectors including publishing, sales promotion, marketing, and design consultancies, before starting my own company in 1995. I have always to some extent kept up with the fine art - even when this just meant going out sketching with my dad... and its always played a big part in my design work.

This is amazing! So much emotion comes through without even seeing the face.....the pose and the muscles speak so loudly!! :)))vf
John Alexander
You put so much of the human condition in this image Paul. The textured version really brings it to life. This is one of your very finest as far as I am concerned. I can relate to every detail of this work, as it speaks to the immensity of life's struggles and how they can from time to time seem overwhelming in a way that makes one feel like a clenched fist.

Thank you Michelle for the feature in the "Collectors Gallery" group :-)
Courtney Waller
beautiful! you have an amazing understanding of how to draw the human body :)
Paul Davenport replied:
Thank you Courtney - thats due mainly to me doing lots of life classes :-) figures and faces do hold a fascination for me though, as our brains are hard wired to some extent to interpret them in ways we don't with other things... I find them intriguing!
