Lowestoft Skyline a room with a View
As part of the theme ‘Lowestoft Skyline’ this painting ‘A room with a view’ is partly a true and an imaged view from my art studio During the lockdown, I have often been drawn to looking through my studio window at the goings-on and people watching more than usual. I have painted several compositions that are relevant to the Lowestoft skyline and I am always searching for different perspectives that inspire me.
The Minotaur and the Clockwork Boy
This painting portrays a minotaur with a clockwork boy, having tea and cakes. In Greek mythology, the ‘minotaur’ is a fabulous monster. I was thinking about male energy, the positives, and negatives of it. Positive – fireman, negative – a bully. The boy could evolve either was. He is a biological clockwork boy. The head-on a stick is the last person to psychoanalysis the minotaur.
