Safekeeping (white) 1

A sculptural painting inspired by architectural forms and textures with rich sepia and umber tones.
Lines have been engraved into the surface which contrast the organic curves of the wood grain.

9mm thick lasercut Poplar plywood. Spacer blocks behind to create a floating effect and pleasing shadow.
Ready to hang.

My long standing interest in landscape and architecture have always inspired me. Vernacular buildings, both rural and urban, domestic and functional, have found a place in my work for some time, no doubt also informed by time as an architectural technician. I am particular drawn to the triangular form of the gable ends of buildings, whether they be simple sheds, northern terraces, suburban 1960’s bungalows, barns or industrial warehouses.
