An explorative 'geo-figurative' series which I am currently working on. What or who does he see? Chains of captivity or of freedom? Why the hesitation?

Robert is a sold fine art painter based in Suffolk best known for his geometric figurative ('geo-figurative') works and quirky still lifes. He paints mainly in oils enjoying its multiple technique uses and is currently experimenting with mixed media as he develops his practice. Interested in the semiotics of the figure his works derive their meaning based on the model's body language or expression and perceived cue. He enjoys the interplay of the organic figure with linear and ovoid geometric forms bound together in tight colour harmony and composition and now leans towards an intuitive approach having studied formal composition and colour theory. His figurative outlines express his desire to communicate the electric energy, often latent, within the human form and his use of 'guard' lines to protect the model is a personal stylistic choice. As such his work can be considered abstract expressionist. His latest series of works mix his master techniques and references an avenue he is keen to continue exploring. He is a Member of the Visual Artists Association an organisation he quotes as having had a huge impact on his attitude and approach towards his work giving him the confidence and support to move forward in sharing it with others.
