Description

Roy Fairchild - Woodard was born in 1953 in Surrey, England. He lives and works most of the year in his country home. This peaceful environment is fundamental to his well being and stability as an artist, although he travels throughout Europe to obtain new sources of inspiration. He is particularly influenced by the painters of the Renaissance and he visits Italy in particular to study frescoes, tapestries and paintings and to see for himself the techniques with which they were executed.
His vision is coloured by his immersion in this past. His surfaces are rich and sumptuous and he uses varied interwoven elements such as fabrics and flowers in his work. The crumbling plasterwork of ancient frescos are also alluded to in his use of plaster as base for acrylic and oil over-painting.
His admiration for Egon Schiele and Gustav Klimpt can be seen in occasional references of line and decoration but he has extended their techniques to produce something altogether bolder and contemporary. This serigraph depicts a female figure surrounded with flowers, a bowl of fruit, and paper cutouts. It is hand signer on the lower right, titled at center and numbered 197/385 on the lower left. It is framed in a wooden frame with a 2 inch liner measuring 53" x 63.5". It has been recently appraised and all documentation will be forwarded to the buyer. Condition Noted is Good.
