More Modern

I have received a number of emails relating to my "Modern" genre paintings. Here is another "Lava" 48x36. I know this is a risky direction, but it is only a different type of painting and I'll see how things go with it at the galleries; my 'normal' paintings will continue. Needless to say the "Modern" has created a little excitement with a few clients and other artists.

Hill MODERN

"Hill Modern" is a new genre style for the galleries. This is "Tide", 60x36. I'll be doing test to see how the clients and collectors respond, as this is not my normal painting style, but something that has often been ask for.
