An unusual exhibition as the two artists are mother and son.

ReplyDeleteI quite like the 1988 paintings, the gaze and the one above it.
Hi Liam. I quite like the one of the back.
ReplyDeleteWhat I forgot to say when writing up the post is that the painting that is featured on the poster for the exhibition was painted by both of them: he did the right side and she did the left.
