Description
Modern contemporary acrylic painting on canvas titled "Dirty Mickey".
 
Liquid gold oozing down like a cesspool of monetary greed, "Is that you, Mickey, from my childhood memories of purity and innocence?", "Yes," replied Mickey. "But not like you remember. Beautiful, shiny and clean, but this thinly recognisable dirty filthy film of corrupted, adult society." Of course it is essentially up to you the viewer, as to what you see within the piece. The painting is new and in excellent condition, it is signed with monogram on bottom right corner and is approximately 51 x 40.5cm in size.

Biography

 

I have always had an interest in art and was drawing at a very young age, and pride myself on being a self taught artist. Specialising in portraiture and figurative, but equally adept in still life and landscape, I am very adaptive and versatile to a broad range of styles with a preference to classical, abstract and contemporary as well as materials and processes, including oils, acrylics, screen printing, etching, lino, pencil, pen and pastelI. I have a great passion creating commission pieces for both private and commercial use. I work closely with my clients to ensure that all criteria is met. I actively participate in art exhibitions both local and abroad for which I have won awards. I create pieces both emotive and dramatic, using techniques that I have developed over the course of my career.

Artist Statement

 

My artwork is ever-changing, takes many forms and expresses my views, from social, political, personal experience to colour, light, dark and beauty. Often referencing on the social/political issues, experience and explores the relationships between them, myself and art. Having engaging subjects as diverse as humanity, nature and a broad interest on most things, my work reproduces familiar visual cues, arranging them in my mind projecting and layering them on various materials, processes with each piece. Although usually each piece is different, they are all linked through visual markers or subject matter. The subject matter will determine the form and materials of each work and sometime each work will consist of a range of different mediums. The more I learn and experience the more new areas of interest arise and lead to the next piece of work.
