The Curse of the Modern Mariner Print

This Painting was inspired by a court Case that I witnessed that had catastrophic consequences and meaning for me and my life. It references Samuel Coleridges' Rime of the Ancient mariner and 'The Raft Of Medusa @ by Gericault. Combining both myth and real life tradegy in a modern version of the above classical works. I hope the viwers feel the sense of impending doom, the power of nature and the futility that I felt witnessing 6 barristers fighting for the liberty/ justuce in this case. I choose to work in oil and in a modern renaissance style to reflect the enormity of this painting for me.
