About The Artwork

For years I've been fascinated by Graphic Novel artwork, the depth and high drama of it, the extremes of contrast and perspective. I'm no comic buff but the 'Sandman' series of stories by Neil Gaiman has had a deep impact on my visual sense, and one day reading one of the volumes a small panel jumped out and said 'paint me'. A Google search for 'Dream of the Endless' will produce an almost endless stream of images of the main character - Dream - and this is my own contribution to that corner of popular culture. I first did a small loose sketch and later a full canvas, this time adding the sort of strange and impossible creatures typical of the dream space that lies between wakefulness and sleep. This one is canvas on a wood stretcher and can be shipped as is in a crate or stripped off and rolled for shipping in a sturdy tube.

Art has been in my family for 3 generations, and in fact I still use the easel I inherited from my grandfather. As a child of around 5 my father bought my sister and I sketch pads and set up little still life arrangements for us to draw, so art is pretty much coded in. As an adult I was in the right time and place when CGI first came to SA in its most primitive early form (does anyone out there actually remember a 286 computer?!) and I rode that wave as it broke over the local broadcast and video scene, notching up some notable firsts and winning a pile of now forgotten awards. Eventually the forces of my life conspired to steer me to art proper, which is where you find me, now in my 11th year as a painter of pictures.
