The beautiful and inspirational Modern One

I love a Sunday walk around the modern art gallery, inspiring artwork, manicured grounds and delicious food in their cafe.

This view I created for a commission shows the reflection of the grand entrance and also the Martin Creed piece, ‘Everything is going to be alright’ which reassures me every time I see it.

Creed has said of his art that it is ‘50% about what I make and 50% about what other people make of it’. And I do connect to this piece, and remember walking past it a few times during lock down and hoping it to be true.

I would say that all art is 50/50 and when I draw something it is usually initially for me but that is only half the story, I am making art to be seen and hope that viewers connect to my work in ways I haven’t thought of.
