FORTHCOMING SOLO SHOW AT THE BEN OAKLEY GALLERY 

JULY 2019

  A SERIES OF  NEW LARGE SCALE OILS 

and   GIANT DIGITAL PRINTS 

AS I am working on paintings for a couple of years, its always exciting when the undreamt has been  dreamt into life....and is destined to be shown as a whole series. 

After my first  show (see pic left) featuring Eeeviilll Bambi  at The Ben Oakley Gallery with the artist Yvonne Wayling,  a  good friend alerted me to to the deer in THE FORBIDDEN  PLANET and that was it......I have been thereafter immersed in 50s and60s sci-fi films.  I'm living in new territory , mindscapes, atmospheres of gaseous colour made by paint. a plethora of new inhabitants meet old incumbants.  

From the 1960s retro catwalk  a new reality beckons BAMBI. the influences range from the futuristic world of Barbarella, my childhood nightmare landscape of The Singing Ringing Tree to the beautifully  kitsch Altaira and her deer. A Brave New World awaits......interested? ..see my instagram account for these works as they  progess ,,,,,,,,,,
