Here is a semi-abstract landscape inspired by one of the modern American masters Mark Rothko. The organic yet strongly geometric composition formed by sky, sea and sand is my interpretation of Rothko’s abstract paintings. Against the backdrop of the seascape, I depicted a man and a dog individually on each canvas to create a lyrical narrative. The scene of this story is set at the seashore in northeast England, where my son was born. The dog in the picture was our family dog Freddie who died years ago. Thus I attempted to entwine my personal touch in the narrative. Regarding the diptych style, it was originated in Greek and adopted into Christianity as a portable altarpiece for travelling. I wanted to enhance the concept to indicate the dualistic meaning, such as life and death, light and darkness, visible and invisible, etc., which has become obsolete in our materialistic society. In this way, a story set on a wintery misty morning at the seashore was born interweaving a notion of history and philosophy with my reflection on art and personal memory. The title of the work was after the song by Simon & Garfunkel, the American acoustic duo. The work is, in a way, dedicated to the turbulent yet exciting period of American art and culture. Hence, the title "Hazy Shade of Winter (Diptych)". This work is only available with prints.

Hideyuki Sobue (b. 1965) lives and works in the Lake District, UK, yet grew up as an orphan in Aichi, Japan. Working with drawing and painting, two historic media that have served as a fundamental means of communication since prehistoric times, he explores the unbroken line in the relationship between art and humanity. Sobue uses an entirely original brush hatching technique employing Japanese sumi ink and acrylic. Created through a fusion of influences - the concept of Disegno in the Florentine school of the Renaissance, oriental artistic heritage and neurological studies - Sobue’s medium attempts to create a platform bridging east and west, and explore the interdisciplinary approach related to the human act of seeing. Sobue has exhibited extensively throughout the UK and Japan. Notable exhibitions include “A Letter to the Earth from Beatrix” commissioned by the National Trust and supported by Arts Council England
