Brian Wildsmith Exhibition II

 

Hansel and Gretel  by Brian Wildsmith (1960). This large piece by Brian is a joy to see in real life, for it combines his bold almost pop art collage, and you can see the texture, with his exquisite linear drawings. This piece of work just draws you back again and again because it encompasses different styles in a work of impressive scale and just pure joy!

“Every artist who's ever lived wants to be appreciated. It's just part of being an artist, whether you're a singer, a musician, a painter or an illustrator. We want to be appreciated – that's why we do it. Our art is our expression, but it's really for other people.” Brian Wildsmith
