Artwork Description

Oil on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the back.

This artwork comes with an external frame

For the Land that Bred Me is an exploration of my personal connection to the natural world and the land that I call home. The title is taken from a poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins, which speaks to the deep bond between a person and their place of origin.

The artwork is a double exposure image of a man wearing glasses in a shirt, superimposed with an image of a forest. Through this juxtaposition, I aim to convey the interconnectedness of human beings and nature. The use of muted blue tones in the oil painting creates a sense of calm and introspection, inviting the viewer to contemplate their own relationship with the environment.

Ultimately, For the Land that Bred Me is a tribute to the power of nature and its ability to shape us as individuals. It is a reminder to cherish and protect the land that sustains us, and to recognize our responsibility as stewards of the earth.

This artwork by Tom Gibbs features two children engaged in an intimate, tender moment against a vast, open landscape. One child, wearing a green coat and hat, bends down with their head resting on the knee of the other child, who stands protectively above, partially obscured by a large, pink bag. The soft pastel hues of the sunset in the background transition from pink to blue, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere. On the right side of the painting, a small, brightly coloured Pitta bird with yellow and green plumage stands on the ground, observing the children. The painting evokes themes of friendship, protection, and the beauty of simple, heartfelt connections amidst the expansive natural world. This artwork by Tom Gibbs depicts a scene of two children interacting with an abandoned, rusted car in a desolate, surreal landscape. One child, dressed in green and blue with a cap, is climbing on top of the car, peering down into its open interior. The other child, wearing a green coat with a fur-lined hood, blue jeans, and a pink backpack, stands nearby, observing the car with curiosity. The background features additional vehicles, including a yellow pickup truck and a green bus, all set against a gradient backdrop of deep reds, purples, and blues that create a mysterious, almost apocalyptic atmosphere. The painting captures a sense of adventure and exploration, juxtaposed with the decay and abandonment of the surroundings, evoking themes of resilience and the enduring spirit of childhood amidst desolation. This artwork by Tom Gibbs portrays a man immersed in water, with his head tilted back and eyes closed in a moment of serene introspection. The background is a soft, warm pink with subtle variations, enhancing the sense of tranquility and contrast with the cooler tones of the water. The man's skin is illuminated with warm and cool highlights, capturing the play of light on his wet skin. The water around him swirls gently, creating a dynamic interaction between the figure and his surroundings. The painting evokes themes of peace, relaxation, and the soothing embrace of water, beautifully blending elements of warmth and coolness. ChatGPT This artwork by Tom Gibbs features a person underwater, viewed through a cascade of bubbles that distort and blur their features. The vibrant blue of the water dominates the composition, with various shades and highlights creating a dynamic, immersive scene. The figure's face and hand are partially visible, with bubbles forming intricate patterns that add depth and texture to the painting. The interplay of light on the bubbles and the water surface enhances the sense of motion and fluidity. This piece evokes themes of submersion, the ethereal nature of underwater environments, and the dreamlike quality of being enveloped by water.
