C'est pas ma faute, je suis anglais.
Tunnicliffe has always fascinated me, I love his work for the fact it (in the majority of cases) transcends the commercial, and the 'raw' wildness of wildlife art. His work is always aesthetically pleasing aswell as being naturally honest, which is a very difficult trick to achieve, and increases the appeal across the board. A lot of the time I say 'sod it ' to aesthetics, just to be different I suppose. I don't believe that art has to be aesthetically pleasing, it can be ugly and lacking beauty, as long as it has energy. The two artists I used to try and 'ape', and to some extent, sometimes still do, are Ennion and Mike Warren. I think that what I do tries to merge these two, and hides the seam by using media that they didn't use.
