The Diabolic Magic of Dr Faustus (2017) SOLD
Acrylic on board, by Syd McCarron
(approx. 450 x 300mm or 17 3/4 x 11 1/2 inches)
An exersise in ‘automatic painting’ - having no preconception of what one is painting, instead allowing one’s subconscious to flow freely through the paintbrush. The process is aided by the use of conducive psychedelics. The resulting images are rather forbidding, probably the reason why they have been buried for seven years. I’m glad I kept them though - time has allowed me to view them objectively, and I think they’re strong images. Condition is as the day it was painted.
