Our club were invited to join Fordingridge Art Group to a talk by the master. About 8 of us went, filthy night drive across the treacherous new Forest in driving rain. What a performance, he spoke non stop for about 90 minutes with a well put together slideshow of his career from Belfast to the current day. I didn't know he had done so much military work. Humour, self affacing and very approachable in answering questions from the floor.
I wish I'd been there. He's a wonderful painter and he's excellent at talking about his approach to painting. I've seen a couple of his DVDs and the his commentary on what he's doing is far better than most other painting DVDs.
Yes, he rubbished modern art teaching about lack of drawing, rubbished artyfary talk and spoke of many down to earth experiences.
