The Bucket – early memorise awoke a passion in me for myth and mythology, since then stories and symbolism of the ancient world have mingled in my mind to produce a lively and varied personal iconography.

 

 

 

Many an hour has gone by staring longingly at guitars on display in shop windows, dreaming of stardom. It’s one of a series of shop fronts on the home page of my website that provide a link to different sections of my portfolio.

 

 

This print is from the series All that I know, a portfolio of 10 prints that form part of the Tableaux of Dreams collection, a highly individual and deeply personal set of paintings, drawings, and etchings. The works deal with the unreliability of memory and a wish to ‘reimagine’ the past in a way that is better suited to our needs.

Etching, printed and hand tinted by the artist, on Saunders 300gsm paper in a strictly limited edition of 25 prints. Image size 27 x 21cm, Paper size 38 x 28cm, Framed size 57 x 47 x 3cm.

The Pie and Eel Shop was part of my London heritage, but I was never a big fan. It’s one of a series of shop fronts on the home page of my website that provide a link to different sections of my portfolio.

 

 

When working on more complex images in my ‘Tableaux of Dreams’ series I must let each individual icon be seen in isolation. For this project I’m combining the two icons into one image and that gives me a great deal of freedom to play with colour, tone, and emphasis. The base print is an etching, and the colour is applied as a monoprint, so each artwork is an individual creation.
