Cain and his Son Enoch 160 x 160 cm.
Oil on canvas ( installation Shot )
this piece is a large canvas and was painted very speedily. I enjoy the point of departure in the handling of the colour and brushwork.
The composition has a psychedelic, Neo-gothic tinge to it that both troubles and pleases me.
I need painting to dramatically move me one way or another.
Nothing ever feels quite right as a painter and I guess it never should perhaps. A sense of the uncanny prevailing always.
