Spiral Galaxy 28948

E2 E4

Last month I saw a very vivid shooting star with my daughter, we watched it shoot across the southern sky; it was visible for almost 3 seconds and was like a sparkler, flaring at one end, it was reminiscent of medieval representations of comets...it is time to watch the skies again.

The Urge begins. Heaton Moor, Stockport. 1985


The Skull logo on the petrol tank was my first commission, from my friend Jock Anderson in 1985. The first proper painting. Where I learned frustration and fascination, and the edge between different layers. The skull was an agonising project, I was desperate to get it looking good, but I was never satisfied. Even now I can see what I want to change, and I will, the skull is like all painting, unfinished.
