Detail of the painting
Detail of the painting
Basil's Folly No.9 is part of the ongoing Basil's Folly series. No. 9 introduces touches of bright saturated color and more expressive, almost confetti like brushwork.

When I originally started the series I was thinking about how children like to pretend and imagine wonderful things when they play – anything and everything is possible. I began thinking about a child’s game that included an invisible folly. By folly, I mean the architectural definition. Initially I 'placed' the unseen folly in abstracted landscape settings but now, the environment has shifted to include bright playful colors and gestural paint handling.

Basil's Folly No.9 :

{+} Is created with acrylic paint on archival 100% cotton 640 gsm heavy weight primed paper 

{+} Will be carefully packaged including a pH neutral barrier to protect the surface

{+} Full signature and date on the back, small discreet initials on the front and certificate of authenticity

{+} Fine layer of archival varnish applied to front of artwork to protect/inhibit UV rays

{+} The full paper size is 22h x 30w (56h x 76w cm) however I am suggesting a 1-2" crop / mat allowance for the framer and to help cover the edges. The interior design image above helps show how the painting could look framed.

"My work explores the delicate balance and connection found between nature and what it means to be human. To seek and celebrate endless reverence...reflect homage, love and hopefulness. However, you can not have a complete understanding of joy without sadness; happiness without sorrow or beauty without roughness. There's always this tiny sprinkle or thread of contrasting emotions in my work to bring the expression into the foreground...this is what makes the artworks move, appear poetic and feel authentic.
