mark hobley

new works in mixed media on wood panel. always thought-provoking, his work has been described as cultural samplers rendered in technicolor pop that convey primitive as well as the pixel. what he brings to these everyday experiences is the voodoo of spin. "the painting's poetry is buckshot storytelling; it aims at no one but hits us all..."

 

 doug forrest

works in reclaimed wood creating familiar objects, birds, garments and animals. the pieces seem raw and simple on initial viewing, but a close up look reveals further manipulation. smaller wood cut outs, or strips and a repositioning and layering over the base wood to add depth, texture and fluidity.
