Gill’s urge to constantly try new things has always captivated him and many of his studies are never realised by him on canvas. As a result of his exuberant wealth of ideas, he creates studies for paintings. These can function as a draft for new acrylic paintings however the resulting works on paper are of such high quality that Gill has provided them with his signature, making them a unique and an integral part of his body of work. Studies are created on an experimental basis and encompass colour variations from pastel to Pop Art. Each cohesive study can be changed in a small way such as overlaying linework to capture refracting light to entirely new colour blocking depending on what Gill is trying to achieve. Each study an exploration into the way light and colour effect the elements of an image, as small changes, even nuances, are important to him.
