“Don’t Worry, Be Happy” ~ back in 2016 when I was a regular (a barfly, mainly) at Henry’s open mic nights, this man would often steal the show with his a-capella rendition of that song 😃 I used to sit there in the audience sipping my wine, or at the bar which would be heaving with musicians and performers, all watching him intently and smiling with pleasure. Nice one Jonathan Hughes and Happy Birthday! 🍻 ~ oil on panel 300 x 200mm
“Afternoon Delight” ✨painted from a photo taken one sunny evening last year ❤️🔥 oil on panel 300 x 400mm

“Paddy” ~ a commission for another musician friend of mine. We tried to do a band in the early 2000s but it fell apart after I fell out of a window and broke my leg. Otherwise I’m sure we’d have made it 😆~ oil on panel 200 x 300mm
“Midnight Moody” ~ I’ve been chipping away at this one for what, six months now and at last I think she’s finished. That’s an 80s ‘midnight moody’ hat hence the title. Swipe for the full image ~ oil on panel 800 x 1000mm
“Seb” ~ silvery streaks worn with pride! My latest subject who also happens to be an old pal 🍻 30 x 40cm, oil on panel
“Alone in a Crowd” ~ oil on panel 300 x 200mm
“On With The Show” ~ a study of an old pal of mine, who I used to play music with, way back when. I once challenged him to play the theme from The Bill on his bass… After about three seconds thinking time, he played the whole thing perfectly, in the correct key I expect, without looking down at his strings once… (in fact looking at me which made me crack up even more). He even included the accurate key change! Thanks for that memory, Dave. Talented chap ✨ ~ oil on panel 400 x 300mm
“UFO” ~ Happy 37th to my baby bro @samuelrichardburden ~ hope your birthday is out of this world mate 🤩xx
