“Stolen Moment”

Acrylic on 300 gsm. paper, 50cm. x 70cm.

A moment in time, gone now; all that is left is it’s affective impression. Early morning sunlight streaming through a window to mark the beginning of another glorious day in an otherwise, drab Welsh council house.  The sun’s brilliant light refracting through panes and its kaleidoscopic brilliance reflecting off everything within. A dazzling start to a new day. As ever,all seemed well with the world. Oh! that is rather a clichèd  phrase. Modern communications technology instantly and constantly  remind me that all is never well with the world.  Nevertheless my world remains full of such “stolen moments”.

Is it too much to expect that in 2017, all may be well in the world.

He graduated from Southern Cross University, Lismore, NSW. with a Bachelors Degree of Visual Art (Honours). Davids artwork is inspired by memory; but rather than depict specific events, he reflects emotional situations, infused by present moments of recollection. In recent times, after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, his work has taken a new and positive direction. His 'Elemental Representions" use colour, form and symbolic motifs, to create a personal visual story line. View all posts by David Carroll - Visual Artist
