Call me in RED

RED SERIES: CALL ME IN RED

This piece was influenced by some of my earliest memories of my grandparents who owned a big, heavy phone just like this, which rang with a sound so loud that low flying birds dropped feathers in fright.

It’s a time when a phone had a commanding position in the home, a stand, a book and chair, even a moneybox to help with the bill.

How many monumental family moments came from this device: news of the war, someone getting married, babies being born and loved ones departing.

CALL ME gives me a warm feeling, as it did when I was a child on winter mornings, snuggled under covers safe and secure in the knowledge that all is right with the world.

And now today this phone’s ringtone is heard on our smartphones, an audio blend of yesterday and tomorrow.

CALL ME IN RED is now looking for a place to hang.

This painting is 91 cm wide and 91 cm high with 40 cm Gallery corners is a COMMISSION piece.

All my work is based on the "price per square inch formula" in accordance with my 20 years of experience and to maintain conformity across all sizes and shapes for my collector's peace of mind, so you can feel secure that you're always investing the correct amount in my art.

ABOUT ME BITS.
I am an artist who loves to paint in a pop art style reminiscent of my influencers Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Jackson Pollock, and Jasper Johns.

To rethink retro technology, make it crack and sizzle with a style that rewards the viewer with a sense of contemporary nostalgia, a mind shift from yesterday, and all that tomorrow promises.

My collection is organic and flexible in embracing my advertising and film background. I see endless possibilities from abstract looseness, to the defined borders of the hard edge.

Light, the true medium of my art, is in the eternal symbiotic dance with paint and canvas and once embraced, copulates and bears birth to the new entity.

My journey is to create, my desire is to discover, my purpose to seek custodians of my art.

Art transcends and unifies all.
