Not For Sale
I’m one of those people who like maps. I see maps in my head that don’t even exist yet - most never will. And I’ve painted maps.
Rather than an actual map this painting is more influenced by maps, specifically the Ordnance Survey maps of Ireland as I reintroduced myself to them following cycling across America - where maps were very very different, as I was to paint in this painting of America .
I was house sitting when I painted This Is Not America. In a house with no furniture save a bed and a kitchen table. No chairs of any description. So I painted this on my knees in the kitchen beside the only other possessions left in the house - a kettle, teapot, and mug.
The painting This Is Not America is part of the artist’s collection, and so is Not For Sale.
