This piece depicts a lobster transcending the different ages of humanity, specifically our art. Moving from left to right we see early cave art to ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, China, Medieval Islamic, Renaissance, Baroque, Impressionism (more accurately post-Impressionism) to modernism and finishing with post-modernism graffiti art. The painting comes full circle as the first and last panels both represent art on a surface not specifically designed for it. The ouroboros exemplifies this as well as being co-opted as a representation for critiquing art's perpetual battle with itself as it tries to define what art is, particularly in the modern world, hence its position. Why a lobster? Why not.

I am a self-taught artist specialising in oils. I first started painting in 2012 and generally painted whatever caught my interest. This has in the last few years narrowed down to focus on figurative art, with themes of lost artwork, Don Quixote, historical paintings and portraiture. Looking forward to presenting my next collection in late 2020/early 2021 - "Lost Art".
