Artist featured in a collection
I took a photograph of myself in front of the ruins of a castle on a north Wales coastal walk several years ago. I used this photograph as the source for the painting, removing some unwanted details in the photograph and simplifying and changing the image somewhat but keeping the main elements. It is not intended to be a portrait of myself, I was just the model. It is the image of a head with a castle ruin directly above it that interested me.

United Kingdom
I was born and raised in the Greater Manchester area of the UK and I still live there. My artistic influences are varied and I'm not going to state them in case I forget someone who is more influential than I realise. Inspiration comes when it will and is outside of my control. It can come when you are simply walking down the street or looking out of a window, but it comes about, I think, because you are engrossed in art. in looking at things, and in the practice of making art objects. I like to work in oils and acrylics when painting, in pencil, pen, charcoal and coloured pencils when drawing, and in the detritus, waste and assorted bits and pieces of everyday life when making collages. Photography is a medium I work in but in a simple way, nothing technical. I see something that interests me and I press the button. I don't believe in post-production of photographs and I don't do arranged, studio compositions. Please see my personal website at bowkerart.weebly.com for more images.
