An exhibition of recent paintings by Stuart Kenyon, featuring urban landscapes and portraits that are characterised by bold shapes and considered colour choices.
His series of street scenes capture views of St Helens where we can recognise familiar locations of Lowe House Church or the brutalist architecture of Church Square Shopping Centre.
Stuart playfully and imaginatively creates an image using shape and colour; the palette in the paintings references the neo-impressionists Gauguin, Van Gogh and Matisse.
While Stuart is largely self-taught, he takes inspiration from any source at hand informed by the use of his own imagination. This could result in cubist pigeons roaming the street, or an elegant yet minimal appeach to painting. Whichever approach taken, each boasts an individual style, proving timeless in the arts.
