Ian and The Woodins
Home
I am a self-taught artist who, by trial and error, has mastered the techniques of creating images in oils, watercolor, pen and ink, graphite, and charcoal. My work also includes photography and First Day Cover Cachets (FDC). I am particularly drawn to the natural world such as animal life, landscapes and seascapes. But if I find any subject interesting, I’ll not hesitate to paint, draw or photograph it. I know when a piece is finished when I feel that I’ve captured the essence of the subject. The same applies to my digital photographs. I use the traditional “darkroom” techniques found in a computer-based program if I want to enhance a photograph and will never “photoshop“ my work. My FDC cachets will always compliment the newly issued stamp’s subject and not conflict with it.

I neither go into any fanciful explanations concerning my work nor do I give my pieces, photographs or cachets any fanciful titles. I just paint, draw and photograph subjects that I find pleasing and hope that the viewer finds the finished work equally so.
