ABOUT THE ARTWORK
A sculptural form is suggested through the use of a truncated pyramid, yet an unexpected variation is achieved through a twist and rotation of the upper portion of the form. The work is printed on Premiere Sateen high quality linen and framed in basswood with the surface finished in satin white acrylic. The work is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity singed by the artist. The Fine Art Print The Price The price of the work is the monetary value the artist considers the work deserves. That said, price should not be an obstacle to ownership of a work which will give the buyer pleasure. The price is negotiable down to a threshold below which the work is not for sale. On the Prints Most of the works on this site are Limited Editions each accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist. All prints come with a 1 in (2.54 cm) white border and the sizes shown include this with the exception of those works where the border is an integral part of the work. The distinction is self evident in the particular work. Very high quality museum archival media are used to print the works and the nature of these media is that the edges of the work proper have to be protected. Buyers may wish to remove the border if this is desired. The artist recommends this. Mounting and, if desired, framing, is available at buyer's discretion at cost. Discussions should be conducted with the artist, through Saatchi Art, should this be the case.

It is possible, though not proven, that abilities of whatever nature, come from our genes, passed on by parents. In my case, my mother. My mother dripped art. Her sister, whom I never met, was a concert pianist though both brothers were engineers as was their father. My mother lived entirely in the arts world and I grew up in Edinburgh surrounded by artists of all nationalities. I remember visiting one, a painter. Long after my mother had left us, my two brothers and I visited an artist friend of hers. He was as poor as were we and he gave us bread slices covered in sugar. My father, an intellectual and self appointed scholar, had chosen not to work; defeated by the breakdown of his marriage. We went overnight from among the very wealthy in the city into genteel poverty since he had lost his job with the Royal Society of Edinburgh as a result of his withdrawal from the outside world. This was a peculiar upbringing. What it meant for me is that I could not do anything but choose a career which guaranteed security of employment and income throughout my life. A natural choice was engineering. I spent my life in this career for which I was quite unsuited and quite alien to me but I was good at it, I am tempted to say, very, very good, unfortunately. Now I have reached a point, with that career behind me, where I can pursue what I love and am good at. Well, better at. All those years, in every waken hour outside of the demands of the intensity which engineering requires, were spent pursing knowledge and practice of arts; art, literature, theatre and music. At college I hung around with the artists. My fellow engineering students seemed alien beings to me. I was fortunate indeed to grow up in Edinburgh and one could not wish for a fuller cultural environment. Since my mother was an artist, I was exposed early to the creation of art, both hers and that of her artist friends. Before coming to this country to join family, I lived in South Africa for a period of years, which has influenced me in ways that are not readily apparent in any of my art works. I think the profundity of influence is due to the particular light that fills the landscapes of that part of the world and the people. There is, too, a deeply felt sense of being connected to the world and to the soil upon which we stand and live. I suspect that the political situation of the time made me aware of power abused to subjugate others and to deny them their freedom.
