2021 Acrylic on canvas with high gloss varnish 70cm x 70cm, framed, ready to hang

This wonderfully autumn-inspired piece uses metallic colours against the burnt umber giving it a subtle burst of colour that shines in the light, holding the negative space as it moves with freedom and joy.

Gavin’s current work explores the themes of movement, love, growth, and development in its many forms through abstract shapes and patterns, blending colours that irrevocably speak to us on an existential level. He challenges himself to convey the link between us and the intangible feeling we all have, drawing influences from his life experiences, psychological studies, tribal patterns, and colours.

Gavin feels that this art form and the way the colours blend perfectly depict the relative state we are all in, showing that we are made up of different feelings and emotions, as we move through life. The movement of the paint jumps off the canvas giving it a real injection of life that we all can relate to.

Gavin relishes finding novel and creative ways to show the intangible things that contribute to the strong bonds we create with each other.
