Description
A woman plays a melodic lament on a piano. Her solo performance controls the mood of those listening, a sort of puppet-master. Painted on a fine textured, professionally stretched linen canvas, using Old Holland and Michael Harding artist's quality oils and mediums and finished with a light satin varnish. This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. Ready to Hang: Yes. Signature Location: lower left front facing.
Presentation
Artist Statement:
Born in London, Johnny spent much of his early life in various fairly remote parts of Africa, developing a fondness for beauty in its most natural state - as things really are, rather than as they are often made to appear. This early, exotic isolation fed a great desire to travel widely and experience a world of blemished beauty, culminating in a move to the heart of Paris, within a stone's throw of the Sorbonne, the Louvre and my neighbour, the Musee d'Orsay, from where a love of art proved irresistible.
2017 was his debut year as a professional artist, one that saw his first solo exhibitions. Johnny’s work is now hung in an ever growing group of fine art galleries throughout the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, UAE and South Africa, with recent exhibitions in Antwerp and Miami and Boston.
Artistic Influences:
My aim is to strip away the veneer of a subject and to capture a moment, not a dramatic one, something evocative perhaps, occasionally ordinary but always honest and without the need for a narrative. Art is nothing, if it does not speak... If the power of art is to move the soul, then I am influenced by an an army of giants of whom Caravaggio, Velasquez, Titian, Caillebot, Pizarro and Freud lead.
