Father And Child Art Series

The works are a response to an historical lack of representation in the art world of caring fathers, just as loving as mothers.
I feel there can be discrimination and stigma towards masculinity in society, such as the idea a man with mental illness or a history of drugs and alcohol is a ‘bad father’, a negative role model who does not deserve to care for his child.
My works show how a strong masculine father can be just as caring and loving as the mother. As a group, they recognise the loving and caring roles fathers play in the development of their children.
I have used my previous art school training in classical fine art techniques to give the work a more classical feel over contemporary, while still keeping the tactility of my mark making.
