Inspired by art movements
as far reaching as the early Italian Renaissance and German Expressionism,
Peter Goodfellow's paintings divine a rich artistic heritage. Living in a
remote glen in North East Scotland, Goodfellow paints both figurative and
landscape works. For Goodfellow colour is the all important ingredient in
his oils and water-colours. He declares himself to be an "out and out
colourist" and often paints the same subject repeatedly to distil colour
and form. Raw colour can capture a sense of time and create a sense of
mood and atmosphere believes Goodfellow. 0ften looking to the landscape as
a subject matter for his paintings, Goodfellow deftly describes through
his rich vocabulary of colour the extraordinary beauty and power of the
natural world. |
