ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The work shown is one of a series of nine paintings. Conceptually, the series deals with the consequences of human indifference, nihilism and the triumph of hope. This painting represents extinction. Acrylic on superior rolled canvas board, this painting has a base coat of burnt orange or raw sienna and consists of further opaque pigments with subsequent layers of colour washes. This layering of the work gives it texture and controlled vibrance. Finally, the painting has a coat of acrylic UV varnish, this not only protects the painting but has a unifying effect. The work only needs framing to to make it ready to hang. Finished with a coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV varnish, this not only protects the painting, but has a unifying effect. The work only needs framing with a suggested frame width of at least 70mm or more for this size painting to make it ready to hang.Finished with a coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV varnish, this not only protects the painting, but has a unifying effect. A suggested frame width of at least 60mm or more for this size painting. Narrow frames on large paintings have tendency to not sit well and have a habit of warping.

Born in Gloucester and living and working in Cheltenham UK. I like to work in acrylic because it allows me to experiment, making changes quickly is paramount when wishing to explore your options. I suspect like most figurative artists I find drawing and painting the human form wholly embedded with human behaviour. The desire to secure more than a representation of a persons movement, the spilling of light over contours or the various other physical facets is the reason we continue to make paintings. To recast emotions in texture, colour and pattern and to make it still, perhaps this is a measure of a successful painting. I have sold work around the world, to individuals and organisations and have produced award winning public art (usually with a colleague) for various institutions.
