About The Artwork

This painting is oil on canvas fabric panel which has been slightly distressed as part of the process. It depicts Black Shuck or the Black Dog of Suffolk appearing at St Mary's Church, Bungay in 1577, causing mayhem and deaths in the area on that fateful stormy night. My response to the legend was to paint Black Shuck as a suggested apparition in the sky over the church as a reference to the intangible nature of the story - one that I grew up with from an early age. The trees and foreground are painted using iron powder which has been allowed to rust and compliments the use of oil paints, while the trees employ laser cut stencils from photographs of actual trees in the area, for their composition. The painting is framed in a grey hand made wooden float mounted frame and is ready to hang.

Bungay-based contemporary landscape painter Paul Zawadzki draws inspiration from a love of the Waveney Valley, especially Outney Common and Bath Hills, as well as the marshes, treescapes and uncompromising Suffolk coastline at Covehithe and Dunwich. He mainly paints in oils on canvas or hessian, enhancing pigments with natural materials like sand and sawdust, as well as using varnish, dust and rusted steel to capture the spirit of the landscape. There is a love of spontaneity in his approach – enthusiastically embracing the 'happy accident' by dripping, blotting and splashing paint while retaining an element of traditional landscape painting in the final stages. Recently completing an MA Fine Art at Norwich University of the Arts, Paul has his own studio/gallery in Bungay in order to bring his work to the local community. Over 300 of his paintings are in private collections and he regularly participates in local arts events and exhibitions.
