About The Artwork
After visiting The Vasa Museum in Stockholm and knowing the amazing history of the boat I had a dream that night of the ship sailing but also sinking, so I distorted the image slightly. The ship was designed by the then King of Sweden in the early fourteenth century and it foundered on its maiden voyage while still in the Stockholm harbor. It's hull was too thin and because it was hurried into service by the orders of the King it was poorly ballasted and when the first strong wind filled its sails it tipped over, water poured through its open gun ports and it sunk to the bottom. It was re floated in the 1960s and they made a museum around it.

Costa Rica
I was born in Devonport, New Zealand and grew up in Auckland, New Zealand. Now we live in Santa Ana, Costa Rica with my wife, Artist Natalia Wallwork. My influences are from Ancient and Tribal Art, particularly Mayan Art but I'm also influenced by the great Surrealist artist, Salvador Dali. The underlying concept of my art though is the importance of our connection with the natural world, therefore a lot of my subject matter are the Birds, Animals and Fish of our planet. I sign my artworks 'Hilton', my middle name after my great grandmother, Hanna Hilton.
