'French table'
'Annunciation in a Welsh hillside setting'
Current exhibition at Oriel Canfas Gallery, Canton CARDIFF
Oct 22 - Nov 19 2011
The main focus of the exhibition consists of a series of eight paintings on the theme of tables. The work takes the idea of using the table top as a motif and objects are scratched and painted onto the surface using the subject to create multiple layers of paint that has been scored and scraped to reveal a rich and minutely textured surface. The final image reveals a synthesis between paint and subject.
The remainder of the exhibition consists of new work based on the poetry and paintings of David Jones and landscapes in charcoal and acrylics.
