View From the London Eye Looking West Along the Thames Print

Enter Tom Flint’s dystopian world and you embark on a Stygian journey through dark, satanic cityscapes, peopled by ghostly gures, some skeletal, others naked, passing in front of soaring buildings. There is nothing pretty about his urban etch- ings. They are stark, dramatic and cheerless, recalling Gustave Doré’s nightmarish prints of the slums in Victorian London, or the illustrations which ‘Phiz’ drew for Dickens’s Bleak House. Nothing cosy in these corners, either. The buildings, which are a major feature in many works, could be described as representational, whether in silhouette or traced outline, and in whatever manner he has rendered them, but at street-level things change and his vehicles, for instance, are described with almost childlike simplicity. Although not trained in architectural drawing, his perspective and attention to detail would shame many an architect. Some of the skies in his later oils are worthy of seventeenth century Dutch masters like Willem van de Velde the Younger, or even J M W Turner
