This painting combines multiple styles to create contrast and depth with overlapping layers and strong colour. The base layer is acrylic paint scraped colours of marine, red, pink and cyan. The top of the painting then displays the 'battle of Zama' from the 2nd Punic war. This is painted in monotone to offset the colours underneath. Over the battle scene is pained the third layer which is a 'lion's mouth'. The lion's mouth is the 'power' set over the earth which is destructive. The lower part of the painting features a stencil with gold spray paint of 'Cornonovirus' from the Asterix novel, chariot race. This character featured in the 2017 publication and was 'Rome's champion charioteer who wore a golden helmet with a laughing visage. Over these are painted the 'trademark' horse heads, whichh are being impaled with arrows, swords and spears. Finally reimagined logos of Astra Zeneca and Pfizer are placed upon the horse heads.

I use recurring themes based upon my own perceptions of the world we live in.Realism can feature in my work sometimes but i'm generally driven by abstraction. The process has to be enjoyable, quick and not labored. Creative play forms a large part of the artworks. I was influenced by Picasso's 'unlearning' process of imitating child like drawing. What are we trying to say as an artist is something crucial to the work. My theme is generally focused on 'trust' and 'deception'. I'm traditional in the sense that I like the 'format' of painting, print and sculpture. My style evolved from splicing contrasts together, Id make a stencil, push some acrylic through it instead of spray. Then Id paint over them so that they became partially lost in the painting. This was to recreate a visual way of showing how things are hidden. In the same way our body has an inward working of lungs and the intestines. Also how in the world there are things obscured within events. These events draw our attention but the surface of them hides something deeper. So the work in its composition conveys hidden things, sometimes I'll use childish imagery to obscure something sinister. I might do this to show how a simple way of thinking hides something more complicated. Its complexity could be intimidating. There are lots of allegorical meanings too, I might show a thorny rose for example. This would indicate good and evil. You might be intrigued as to why Id write ' life and death' on a lion's tongue? This would show the power of the tongue.
