I really love the color palettes in your pieces, and all those "shapes without a shape" you create. Looking at one of your paintings is really like watching a cloudy sky at dusk, pretending to see flying cities and alien creatures in the shapes of clouds. This is what we do with my wife on many an evening, gazing out through the window at twilight time (we live on a hill side, and always have beautiful sunsets). And every time I cannot help thinking of your paintings. Really. :-) |

Pierre, thanks so much mate. I was actually in two minds about this piece, since i think there is a lot of room for improvement, but it is in and i am very glad ^^. That is one hell of a compliment mate, I don't think there are too many artists who get this kind of praise, its very flattering and unique^^. Cheers very much, pierre!!.

Amazing work, Marley, there is always something organic about your pieces....the imagery seems to shift and evolve in front of my eyes, the fact that you are going to work on this more makes me wonder if you seek constant change...I suspect you are one of those artists who are never quite satisfied...and that's good right? |
| (Marley Mcleay) |
Yea you're right, I seek improvement. And if I were to draw parallels to my real life, it would make a lot of sense. As for this piece now, I have passed the cool down period and think that there will be no more work on this, I am very emotionally satisfied with this piece, I am loving the whale connection. I was involved with the rescue of stranded pilot whales earlier this year, and that was just amazing, thousands of people guiding 100 pilot whales out to see. something I never forget :). Thank you, james...Marley

Wow. I had to just stop and stare at this one for a minute. The orange/blue contrast is so sharp, I can almost taste it (tangy!) and the lines are as always beautiful. You've really got the perspective/depth down on that foreground surface. I love your environmental inspirations! It's gorgeous! |
