Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
For AOAP I wanted to show the various aspects of my work practice. I'm interested in faces, the body and still lifes. I'm very old school and believe that drawing is the basis of all creativity. ''I have intense periods when I cannot stop drawing, the ideas
and themes pop into my head and I just have to capture them on paper.
Picasso once said he didn't know what he was going to draw until he'd begun.
That's what excites me about drawing."
PLEASE DO NOT BID ON ARTWORK IN OUR ART ON A POSTCARD AUCTIONS IF YOU INTEND ON SELLING THE ARTWORK AFTER YOU HAVE PURCHASED IT. THIS AUCTION HAS BEEN ORGANISED FOR CHARITY AND ALL ARTWORKS HAVE BEEN GENEROUSLY DONATED BY THE ARTISTS TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE HEPATITIS C TRUST. WHEN THE WORK PRODUCED FOR THE CHARITY IS SOLD ON THE SECONDARY MARKET IT DAMAGES OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ARTIST AND PREVENTS US FROM FUNDRAISING.
