Bill Kneale

In Bill's own words:

I paint in an impressionistic way, capturing visually interesting scenes. I sketch to start the development process, and my acrylic paintings evolve with questioning and changes. Sketching records my initial impression, an important springboard that begins the development through to an acrylic painting. The painting is continually questioned, and changes occur, small and large scale.

The under painting adds depth and shows the journey. On-site paintings are quickly produced using acrylic, a fast-drying medium. I like to leave some evidence of under painting, this helps enliven the composition and shows some of the journey a painting undertakes.
