About The Artwork

Here is another painting in my most popular ‘Bruegel’ series, depicting characters from some of Bruegel’s great works. Pieter Brueghel the Elder’s works have inspired many including myself. Bruegel initially worked mainly as a prolific designer of prints produced from his drawings and only in the last decade of his lifetime he switched to painting, particularly specialising in peasants’ everyday life. I am enamoured by his work and often comparison may be made with my other inspiration Hieronymus Bosch. I have taken sections and characters from Bruegel’s works and made them my own. This piece is based on Pieter Bruegel the Younger’s painting titled ‘The Egg Dance’. I decided to adapt it slightly to my interpretation by introducing a dancing egg rather than the peasant lady dancing around an egg. Through the relationship between the various elements within the work hints of narrative and representation may emerge. Perfect for adding a statement piece to living spaces that may create a talking point with visitors. Executed in good quality oil paints, painted on all sides, and finished with a glaze of gloss varnish to protect against sunlight and dust. It just needs a nail or wall fitting to sit flush against the wall. You will receive a signed certificate of authenticity. The painting is 24 x 32 inches, with a depth of 0.6 inches and is on stretched canvas. All art is professionally packaged to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. My works have been shipped worldwide. About me: I am a painter, mostly in oils although I have begun to switch between oils and acrylics. I love to paint, love colours, shapes’, and textures. I love the idea that a different story can be read into each of my paintings and each viewer may interpret a story different to another.

Corinne is a UK based artist having previously worked in the finance industry. While appreciating art most of her life, she began painting about four years ago and is largely self-taught. Corinne paints almost exclusively with oils and works in a Studio space at The Artworks, Halifax, West Yorkshire. She considers oils as the most vibrant and challenging of the mediums and the vibrancy of colours and textures are shown within her work. However, due to the 2020 Covid-19 virus and the UK lockdown Corinne was only able to access acrylic paints and has produced a number of different style paintings. Corinne is particularly inspired by the Netherlandish Art of the Sixteenth Century, notably the two masters Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel the Elder. She is totally fascinated by their work. Bosch who embodies the phantasmagorical force of painting, while Bruegel through his true-to-life landscapes and frank depictions of peasants. She loves the idea that there is a story within their works and has been inspired to paint some of their works but applying her own style of painting. As an artist Corinne loves to present the viewer with themes and subjects that raise their own thoughts and views on what the subject matter is telling them. Corinne has now completed painting the Seven Deadly Sin series of drawings of Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Bruegel made these preparatory drawings in ink for subsequent engraving by Pieter van der Heyden. His drawings depict the essence of human nature by illustrating moralising imagery through a comic lens. Corinne’s aim is to bring these drawings to life by applying her painting style using vibrant colours and textures. Corinne is passionate about her work she produces and hopes that the viewer will love her work as much as she does when painting.
