This is ready to hang and signed on the reverse.  It is finished in resin to maintain the colours and also to protect it.  

The work is inspired by the deer itself, having spotted one within Epping forest while driving past in Essex UK.  I later thought of the  trophy head often seen mounted on a wall hinting at death.  However, I wanted to use the head as a "canvas" to hint at life by conjuring up a time of the day in which the deer existed and reflect that onto the surface.  With this piece, it is a hot afternoon.  The red colour of the antlers symbolises the heat and the face is a pattern painted with colours hinting at coolness found among the shaded areas of the forest.

I look for the potential decorative aspects contained in the the subject I wish to paint. Then it is about the process of creating an artist's viewpoint, rather than realism itself. This involves the elements of shape, thinking in terms of an overall pattern and then creating a pleasant mood through choosing colour(s). The aim is simply to enjoy the process of creating and hopefully another viewer of the artwork will have an enjoyable experience also. I think the best interpretation of what I attempt to produce is contained in a quotation from Matisse: “What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue.”
