About The Artwork
Following a theme I have frequently explored this painting examines the subject of drapery and fabric. The interest in fabric derived from a subsequent fascination with painters of fabric from the past (Vermeer, Veronese, Velasquez and Zurbaran ). In fact the inclusion of fabric was an essential compositional operative device used to great effect by many painters from the past. Here I have used it as the central subject. The painting was also intended as a 'Trompe l' oil' piece for inclusion within an interior. This would create the illusion of hanging fabric (painted actual size) within the interior space. Through these means the painting operates as a still life interpretation and as an optical illusion. The painting is painted on a hand stretched and primed canvas support using quality artists oil paint. The painting was carried out in my studio over a two week period using a series of photographs, drawings and image based adjustments.

United Kingdom
I am a painter based in East London (Hackney). I have a small studio and work from arrangements of objects. I usually base my ideas around disposable items, fabric and plastic/containers. Referencing a number of artists from different periods I tend to work from direct observation and use a limited palette. I also sometimes employ and create carefully corriographed photographs and use a camera obscura for compositional purposes. Subjects are selected for their reduced colour. I am interested in ambiguous arrangements of objects and spatial illusion.
