About The Artwork
This painting was inspired by 19th century photographic portraits of officials in their finery. They have splendid uniforms and gold ornament, so I used gold leaf to add to their glamour. I'd also been looking at images of different gods with hybrid bodies and there is also a hint of the fairground about this smiling character. The surface is painted using a tiny brush to build up the rich colours. It is slightly glossy, again to suggest richness and lustre, like a lovely fat Christmas bauble.

United Kingdom
I make figurative paintings and sculptures inspired by historical styles such as Victorian Gothic, Chinoiserie and 19th century India, constructing life-size painted cutouts from wood. My work is inspired by Indian miniature painting, Pop art, Commedia dell'Arte and folklore art. The cutouts are arranged in various contexts - as paintings on walls, in clusters, like stage sets. I was short-listed for the Contemporary British Painting Prize last year, and am currently working with Arts Council funding, the 'Develop Your Creative Practise' with mentors Sacha Craddock and Manick Govinda.
