About The Artwork
This painting is a re-imagined newspaper headline from August 1977 announcing the untimely passing of the king of rock 'n roll, the one and only Elvis Presley. Rather than make an exact reproduction of an actual headline which all featured a fat and unwell image of the king, I decided to work from a photo of Elvis in his prime. Hand painted in acrylic on canvas, the painting is built up from many layers of finest quality acrylic in order to arrive at a very flat and hard edged finished artwork. Unframed with D rings screwed to the back of the stretcher frame & ready to display.

United Kingdom
I was born in 1952. Originally from London I've lived in St.Ives, Cornwall UK for over 30 years. I began painting in the 1970s and have been exhibiting since the 80's, I studied briefly at the Hammersmith school of art in London. I've always been fascinated by the Golden Age of popular culture & some of the imagery that finds it's way into my paintings comes from this period. I find the distance of time brings about a poetry that greatly appeals to me and which I would describe as nostalgia without sentimentality.
