About The Artwork

A suite of 9 paintings on the subject of Numerical symbolism. I had discovered the illogical of certain numbers having a special 'meaning' apart from just being numbers. For example, that 7 is a 'lucky number': no logic! On researching further I found a number of oddities, for example that 'a houseful of children is 5, one in each corner and one in the middle' (Welsh saying). This painting is based on Tolkien's number of rings; why just 1, 3, 7 and 9, why not fewer? Shown at exhibition in Uppsala, Sweden, Oct-Nov 2020.
