Thank you all..


After a slightly crazy, hazy day the opening went off without a hitch & was incredible thank you to everybody that came to support me & check out my painting - it really means more a lot.

This is the blurb that went with the painting:
Title: Prince of Thieves

This piece symbolises the fight between right and wrong - and if you are stealing from the ‘rich’ to give to the ‘poor’ does that make it okay? Or is it still stealing? It ultimately comes down to perspective; who are the rich? If it's in a video game context, does that make it okay? In video games the lines between right and wrong are blurred; you fight and steal gold and various other precious items to get to the end of the game
The player has to "acquire" gold rings from wherever he can to keep playing the game; they are rewarded for stealing.

I spend my working days designing and drawing pictures at Wintec. To offset all this computer nonsense, I paint and make stuff, sometimes film stuff and enjoy a coffee anytime of the day. Other interests include: hog wraselin', worm farming, tree climbing and specialising generic mayhem.

This is piece is for sale if anyone is interested flick me an email
