Bravo, Tyrone

I was lucky enough to be in art school at a time when traditional skills were still part of the necessary criteria, and I believe that is imperative for an artist to have the necessary degree of competence in the traditional skills before venturing into the abstract or expressionist realms. I have been called a purist, a traditionalist and a surrealist but I do not wish to be categorised and filed away into any pigeonhole. Integrity is a paramount criterion for me in my art, and I believe that as an artist I have an obligation to observe all around me and to represent it in visual imagery that stimulates the thought process of others, - not necessarily to get others to see things the way that I do, - but to realise that there are different ways of looking at the world, and consequently, of understanding others.
