About The Artwork

This sonnet was my inspiriation: 9. Carousel Who could bid farewell and let the gods go free from our enslavement? The merry-go-round spins endless tales from our reason to be as we dream on unsustainable ground. The devil waves goodbye -- his job done freed from servitude to all and sundry rides in the parade that never won the battle for monotheistic rule. Look how Salome impersonates Kundry and we behave like the Perfect Fool. "Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood", with the Baptist's head, symbol of our idiocy. Only the divine with deeds of the good transcend our existential fantasy.

Born Stoke-on-Trent, England. Since 2000, permanent resident in New York. The Timeless Nude The aim of my exploration of the nude and human figure conceived within a timeless universe is to reveal that the archetypal images carried within ourselves are just as real - or imaginary - as the physical world we inhabit. This tangible and finite world provides the inspiration for the painting process. The colour is produced from rocks and crystals including lapis lazuli, azurite and cinnabar, the natural and luminous colours of the Renaissance palette. Since 2008, pure gold leaf provides the perfect complement for the chromatic values of natural pigments. Through the poetry of Euclidean geometry, the structural foundation for a composition is established. This allows the message carried within the image to attain its maximum impact and resonance to unveil the memory of our immortality reflected from the mortal perspective.
