Oil and acrylic on canvas. The background is painted with acrylic with a matt finish and the subject is painted in oil which gives a glossy finish, the difference in textures " matt & glossy " give a sense of depth.this painting represents Henry VIII dressed up like a "Teddy Boy" ( British subculture typified by young men wearing clothes that were partly inspired by the styles worn by dandies in the Edwardian period, which Savile Row tailors had attempted to re-introduce in Britain after the Second World War.) He is standing with a teddy Bear in his arms. He is wearing tattoos of swallows and has " Cool King " written on his fingers. On his collar the wedding rings of his six wives are hanging. The background wallpaper is dark red with pints of ale, knuckle-dusters, cakes, crowns and the Canterbury Cross - symbol of Anglicans - The Anglican church that was started with Henry VIII. This painting is inspired by " Hipsters " it's about revisiting history and also having a Russian-Doll effect, a bear dressed like a Teddy boy with a Teddy bear in his arms.

I am a versatile artist, I use a range of techniques to create a style calling upon different areas of art history and bringing them into a graphic modern world. My artwork is a mixture of pop art and surrealism. Painting is an opening to an emotion and Art appeals to me when it is colourful, narrative, emotional, fun, dramatic, curious and decorative. I see the subjects in my paintings as having their own microcosm of belief, the characters have a fascination with their own image and this means they duplicate or multiply themselves like Russian dolls. I try to picture a society where the absence of mysticism is replaced by narcissistic tendencies. On some paintings I use both oils and acrylics to give a feeling of depth to his images and works from photos and drawings, sometimes with the insertion of characters and objects from classical paintings. These sampled images are modified and painted in a different, anachronistic and metaphorical context from which they were first used. My intention is to manipulate images from their context without diminishing their strength or emotional power.
