Michael Roberts
Artist - Scarborough
As an artist Michael turned to the theatre as an outlet for his creative talent. He worked for a theatre in the Midlands as a scenery artist before travelling north to continue in a major venue there.
His moody land and sea/water-scapes are sometimes referenced from Scottish locations, in particular Loch Fleet which is close to a relatives home
The rugged images are further enhanced by basic hand made stretchers and heavy canvas laden with layer upon layer of oil and varnish, deliberately spilling over the edges.
The few works he produces each year are eagerly snapped up by collectors, those below are currently available and new work is due later in 2008
