About The Artwork

Depicting a mythological instant of creation or creations, reflected in the eye of a dragon (the eye also a play on the etymological root of dragon 'drakein' which is 'to see clearly'). Dragon's have been associated with the beginnings of time, chaos, in various myths and legends in different contexts. Some mythic representations are not really dragon's in the original stories per say (like Tiamat) however the dragons imagery was somehow attached later on... Reflected in its eye is the inner event horizon or inside view of a black hole, the singularity of creation seemingly brought to life by Michelangelo's God as depicted in his 'Creation of Adam' masterpiece.... Ancient symbols tied with creation from various civilizations (ouroboros, Om, tao, pheuma and kneph) are carved in the dragons skin... A questioning juxtaposition of humanities beliefs through the ages and its inexhaustible search for the true nature of the beginning of time and indeed the meaning of life itself..... -------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a high resolution image of the underpainting of my 'Dragon Eye Reflection of Creation' oil painting before I painted over it with the dead layer and then the multiple colour glaze layers of the completed painting. The original completed oil painting is in the Artists Private Collection. This underpainting is an open edition print.

Every step of my Creative process, from conception, to creation of my final art-piece, is derived and created 100% without ANY Artificial Intelligence image generation assistance. ​ It's been my privilege to explore and delve into the myriad creative wonders of this artistic profession for over 15 years. To quote Christopher Hitchens, trying to "..... keep opposing ideas alive in the same mind" is truly what inspires (and frustrates) me daily. Pulling all these apparently divergent realities together, and then, breathing life into the resultant amalgamation in a way that speaks true to those who behold it on canvas, is an incredibly satisfying challenge. In so doing, I strive to create work that envisages the eternal explorations of 'truth' - that intangible carrot that teases us forward.. and that binds us as humans, irrespective of race, religion or the confines of social norms... ​ Growing up in the urban multi racial & cultural, sunny shores of Malaysia, with Anglo-Indian descent, has undoubtedly shaped my worldview and driven me to always try to represent diversity in my work as much as possible. My conceptual pieces are usually developed and inspired by what lurks within the pages of my second love - books, and the inevitable influences of the unique and 'exciting' times we live in.. I see the persistent honing of my artistic skills as integral to creating, and exploring and developing my skills in differing mediums and techniques is one of the many amazing and ever inspiring parts of the process. If any piece tickles your fancy or if you have any queries(*please don't hesitate to request more detailed pictures and angles of my artwork if you wish), drop me a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible! Choose what speaks to you,... A piece you love will be a companion for life.. If you would like to get to know me a little better, do check out my website or my blogs.
