Kent Artists - Phil Lightman





Local artist Phil Lightman has kindly sent us some pictures of his recent paintings - all done using watercolour and gouache on watercolour paper.
"The Jaguar was my Dad’s one and the little boy is me, standing by my mum with my Dad checking the dipstick. The car was actually white, but I thought maroon would make the painting brighter..."
I particularly like the painting of the Jaguar, and think that it was a good idea to take a bit of creative licence and make the car maroon - it works well! What a great idea to go back and look through old photos as inspiration for new artwork.
Phil does take commissions so if you are interested please enquire through us at Chromos!
