“War does not determine who is right. Only who is left” Drawing

My work primarily focuses on how masculinity is shaped and perceived through the loss of traditional livelihoods and the decay of the environments they once inhabited. I often like to draw parallels with those other lost and receding worlds of superstition and religion. I am primarily a self-taught artist and work in the traditional media of oils, charcoal and chalk. The work is figurative though I am keen to introduce elements of ‘accident’ whether, or not, these are serendipitous. Many of the subjects are characters playing a part which is hopefully conveyed in the image and the title. I live and work in South London.
