About The Artwork
Painted imagery from history has always been of interest and provided a valuable source of reference. This painting seeks to reference drapery from such artists as Vermeer, Zurbaran, Caravaggio and Van Dyke. Fabrics and drapery have always taken a prominent but discreet role within dramatic compositions. Here the material is the subject and its inherent drama. The drama is a consequence of the light and shade and the movement of the folds. The work aims to reflect upon these elements and the compositional constraints associated with it. This is a small painting, however it could be scaled up to become a much bigger piece and could also operate as a Trompe l'oeil piece suitable for a larger space.
It was carried out using quality artists oil paint and a gesso panel with cradle.

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.
