Rhythm 2 Painting

My artwork covers a diverse interest in contemporary subject matter, from portraiture, still life and soft sculpture. My latest work involves using paint and mixed media on canvas. I have always been interested in colour. Colour reflects your personality. Picasso taught all artist that like children, that we can all be inventive. He constantly used the impressionists for his subjects. Manet among others. Artist's that inspire are Picasso, his intuitive way of making art and his colour theories. A genius of the 20th century. The surrealist 's such as Max Ernst, Dali. Gerhart Richter , another artist that started with photo realism and all the skills needed to work in this way. He changed from this to abstract works which now command a very high price tag and one of the most celebrated artists of our time. Modern artist's of our time including Bridget Riley and the Op Art movement. I work in both figurative and Abstract. Mainly in Oils.
