Smithy’s Father had often whispered, in tones I dismissed then as rustic superstition, that the earth itself teems with hidden moralities that trees are not mere timber, but living conduits of forces benign or baleful, depending on the angle of the sun.

“Reflections in the Surface” These two 25x25cm wooden panels reveal a lot of dialogue between surface and depth, achieved through the interplay of acrylic groundwork and layered cold wax with oil paint. The panels carry a tactile, almost geological quality.

I wrote this short story some years ago for a collaborative book of poetry and photography. I decided to brush it off and add some AI generated images.

A new post over on my blog. A Rough Guide to Asemic Writing. Link in Bio.

Asemic writing is like conventional writing’s mysterious twin familiar in shape but impossible to read. It looks like text, flows like handwriting or calligraphy, but doesn’t carry any literal meaning.

This abstract blends bold color blocks and dynamic linework with layered red collage paper, creating a sense of movement, tension, and hidden symbolism. #abstractminimalism #graemewebbart2025 #acrylicandcollage #greenwichartist

This 30x30 cm 3D abstract assemblage by Graeme Webb fuses bold geometric relief with painterly abstraction. Four layered circular forms float above a textured base of vibrant reds, yellows, deep blues, and neutrals. These discs introduce depth, and cast shadows.

My technique involves building the work in stages: paint is applied, scratched, overlaid, and then physically added to with layers of card and board. Im hoping to give the painting a sense of accumulated history—much like an urban wall layered with graffiti, signage, and weathered textures.

‘Urban Glyphs 5’ (61×45 cm, acrylic and ink on canvas. This work presents a dynamic, layered grid of painterly blocks overlaid by gestural black ink lines. The canvas is structured yet chaotic, a tension created by the interplay between rigid rectilinear shapes and the fluid, serpentine black lines.

‘Urban Glyphs 4’ (61×45 cm, acrylic and ink on canvas)This abstract painting by Graeme Webb balances vibrant colour with gestural control, using a looping black line to guide the eye through a grid-like field of magenta, blues, and white. #acrylicabstractpainting

Graeme Webb’s Evolution of the Pod No. 8 is a vivid biomorphic abstraction that evokes themes of growth, transformation, and containment through fluid watercolour washes and bold ink lines. The dynamic composition balances organic spontaneity with graphic structure, using colour and motion. #art
