Vase of Hibiscus Blooms
The size may seem odd to many now; however, until quite recently stretched canvases came in standard measurements of inches, now you can buy 30 x 40 cm or 50 x 60cm. I got a real kick out of producing these giant luminous blooms so quickly and did many versions of them. Please remember that photography was expensive right up till the 1990s and therefore I do not have that many images of my early paintings-that’s the way it was. The digital imagery available today creates a whole new paradigm of personal recorded history. What happens to old art works?
