Welcome to my parlour
I am a contemporary figurative artist, based in Ipswich, UK. I explore various subjects from folklore and the occult, using very traditional techniques and exploring the subconscious through pop surreal lenses.
I primarily work in Acrylic and Oils to create my own flavour of portraits and pop surreal art. My Current work is investigating a mix of folklore, urban graffiti and social injustices and attempts to embrace the people caught up in the post covid world. Visually my work features, but is not limited to a mix of dark characters, surreal landscapers and the balance between being and thinking.
You can view my online artist journal on Wordpress here, sign up to my Pencilbooth mailing list here, and if youre feeling kind, you can sign up to my Patron or Kofi and I also have a bitching Fanzine called Black Spring which you can purchase as a digital or printed booklet that details my work month by month..
UPCOMING SHOW! CULT
An exhibition of visceral artworks exploring the gothic, grotesque and macabre through dream space, heightened reality and dark fantasy. Thirteen local and international artists have been invited to respond to these themes in their own medium. The result is a curated gallery of paintings, scenic artwork and sculpture. We invite you to come with us into a space of darker curiosity and seductive gothic imagery. Image: @gerard_torbitt
