Make me an offer I can’t refuse!

I really do have to create some space in our storage units – so if anybody wants the paintings below – make me an offer or they will go on the bonfire.

Another Fish

‘Unlearning old skills and employing new strategies are a constant preoccupation…….questioning about how (and in how many ways) we can read the resulting work itself. His stance has been courageous – he has been prepared to let go; take risks and this is beginning to pay dividends.’…..Quote

‘Self Portrait’ Oil, Acrylic, Computer cut vinyl on canvas 2003/05

I have been accused of being extremely arrogant. I prefer to call it confident. My paintings have become Schizophrenic, I can switch from one ‘style’ of painting to another. Why is it frowned upon to switch from style to style? What is the point of pursuing a singular line of practice?

About peter

'Death by Sushi' Fish can kill me. When I was very small (maybe 3 or 4 years old) my grandfather, who lost the sight of one eye from a bullet fired by a German sniper (fortunately not a very good one) during the Battle of the Somme in World War 1, wiped my face with the corner of his apron, an apron he had used to wipe his filleting knife on. He was a grocery shopkeeper who specialized in wet fish.
