About The Artwork
Isle of the dead is an homage to Arnold Böcklin's well known series of Symbolist paintings entitled 'Isle of the Dead'. It was the last painting completed at my old studio before I had to leave, the building having been sold. I was rushing to finish a fairly average still life of two skulls facing each other when an idea occurred to me.

United Kingdom
Painting crept up on me while I was busy doing other things. Not that I haven’t been drawing and making things as far back as I can recall, I have. It found me early on but seemed to wander off again. Much as I meandered away from my art education, much as I lost all sense of why I became an illustrator. A painting finds me as if stalking something else beyond my view. I’m seized by it and almost always surprised by what it becomes. I rarely employ a formula. Every piece determines the method of its creation and each tends to develop organically, everything in flux until the last moment.
