FRANCIS PAINTINGS
AFTER THE EROTIC EXHIBITON I MADE THE DECISION TO LET GO OF ABSTRACT PAINTING ALTOGETHER AND CONCENTRATE SOLEY OF FIGURATIVE PAINTING.
I WAS APPROACHED BY OKHA INTERIORS TO DO A NEW SERIES OF PAINTINGS FOR THE LAUNCH OF THEIR NEW SHOWROOM. I DREW ON TECHNIQUES I HAD USED IN THE EROTIC PAINTINGS BUT PUSHED MYSELF TO LOOK MORE AT THE NEGATIVE SPACE AROUND THE FIGURE, SO THE ENTIRE CANVAS STARTED TO BECOME THE PAINTING AS OPPOSED TO THE FIGURE BEING THE ONLY FOCAL POINT.
THE PAINTINGS WERE ALSO LARGE - APPROX 160CM X 2M
