关于此艺术家

Frequently, the ideas for these paintings have come from the written word, newspaper articles or books.
A lasting influence is seeing the works by Pieter Breughel an Hieronymus Bosch “live” when I was 5 or 6 yrs old.
I always try to create images of beauty that say something about the human condition and the world we live in.

Flight

1994
55cm x 73cm

Painted due to great sadness and horror at the unfolding tragedy in The Balkans in the early 1990’s. Naively hoping that war in Europe would not be happening again, not after 1945 when lessons were learnt. Surely not again? It seems that you might as well ask for a miracle, like being able to walk on water. If only.

Time Is But a Stream

1991
Oil on Paper
60cm x 50cm

Inspired by a quotation of Henry David Thoreau :”Time is but a stream I go a-fishing in” He was in his own words: “ A mystic, a trancendentalist and a natural philosopher to boot”

Guardians Sleeping

1995
Oil on Wood
52cm x 40cm

Inspired by the heroic actions of “Eco Warriors” everywhere. Available as a Limited Edition Print

Sometime Somewhere

1995
Oil on Canvas
58cm x 75cm

Sometime Somewhere
It’s a dreamlike place for people to escape to away from the modern world. The buildings are inspired by the buildings in some Persian miniatures I admire. You can only get there by boat….

Flight: The Crossing

1994
Oil on Paper
50cm x 70cm

Today, according to official figures more than 2 million men, women and children in this world are displaced having had to flee their homes and countries through violent conflicts or manmade or natural disasters. To visualize and say something about the desperate situation families end up in I thought of Eliza’s heroic crossing to freedom in the book “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” by H.Beecher-Stowe and tried to avoid the blunt “blood & gore “ images.

Autumn

1995
Oil on Paper
84cm x 58cm

Autumn

Alone at Last

1994
Oil on Paper
17cm x 12cm
