Painting, Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 29.9 W x 24 H x 0.8 D in
This is one of three depictions of the garden (including a small pond) and fields behind Swmbarch House in southern Wales, which is the home, studio and gallery of our friends Maggie and Andrew Brown of Indigo Brown creative holidays. We stayed there for a week in early 2015 and I quickly became fascinated by how the play of light and colour energised and emphasised the scene. The painting was started and completed shortly after my return to Northern Ireland and involved much rapid but repeated use of a broad brush and painting knives as I strove to capture the bright but intriguingly stark essence of the landscape.

I use oil or acrylic on canvas, in a broadly representational but often spontaneous manner which often veers toward the abstract, to create grittily energetic landscapes and still lives and (more occasionally) figurative pieces. A lawyer by profession, I only discovered my ability to express myself through painting in my early forties. Since 2014 I have enjoyed much more freedom to paint as much as I want whenever I want. My work is generally well received but possibly the strongest praise my work has received was from Neill Shawcross MBE RUA who said the following on opening a solo exhibition of my paintings at the Island Arts Centre Lisburn in 2005: "ALL Robert's paintings have the Wow! factor. ... In his paintings he creates a world that is uniquely his own. We are privileged to be able to see the world through his eyes". Though I am currently self-representing I was represented successfully for several years by the former Chrisites Irish art expert Danny Kinahan until he closed his Castle Upton Gallery four years ago on taking up a full-time career in politics. Very recently a high end gallery in New York has expressed interest in exhibiting my paintings and I have just confirmed my own interest in that possibility.
