Alfred is a narrative painter where narrative takes the form of atmosphere in many ways. A master of shadow and reflection, of the mystery of the elements from storm sky to soft sunlight. Narrative in the human form, posture and attitude is conveyed in eclectic ways.
An excellent command of technique - watercolour on tempera being a favourite.
An admirer of Andrew Wyeth for many years - Alfred conveys the sense of the past in old barns and sheds, the loneliness of the Gwaun Valley in rain and sunlight, the mystery of the Manannan mist, and the searing cold of the Ukraine borderland.
Sometimes his writings and poem monologues prompt the initial drawings; sometimes vice versa. How do you paint \"The Echo of a Shadow\"?
