About The Artwork

This watercolour is an exploration of the idea that anyone can be a Buddha, an enlightened one. All the same it asks if the wisdom of those whose buddhahood is not apparent, even hidden behind the appearance of bad behaviour and character, is really real. The problem rhymes with that of determining whether a tree that fell in the forest without anyone to hear it falling has really fallen. The moody composition, whose subject is Donald Trump but could equally be anybody else, uses the conflict of cool and warm colours giving the impression that the red/yellow subject must cut the noise and distraction of the blue/yellow background; just as the aspiring Buddha must cut through the noise and distraction of our default state of living on autopilot.

As an artist I'm interested in classical style as well as modern technique. Specifically, I'm interested in using the visual idioms of classical style, with their emphasis on accuracy, perspective, and proportionality, in the service of creating representational art that conveys more than a photograph can. While I work with pastels, pencils, and acrylics too, I am partial to watercolours. Though watercolours are considered by some to be a poorer cousin of oil paint I believe this is an unfair and inaccurate view, encouraged on one hand by the demandingess and temperamental nature of the medium and on the other hand the enviable freshness and spontaneity it can bring to a composition in the hands of a master, In addition to my pursuit of visual art projects, I write nonfiction essays, and reviews for arts and culture website www.Middlebrowse.com
