KEVIN SINNOTT//A Retrospective: 1973 -2004


Before I had any sense of history; before my horizons had spread not far beyond the free-time jaunts of a village in South Wales , and the torch of ambition had barely flickered; before this, I was aware of the significance of Paul Cezanne's painting. Such is the effectiveness of modern mythology perhaps, that such a strange cultural juxtaposition could occur. Nevertheless it was through the fullness of the respect paid to Cezanne by the twentieth century that the nineteenth century master of Aix could have reached my outpost and, in turn, send me scuttling beyond.




Oil on Linen // 53 x 76cms

Executed in the last year before leaving the bungalow to start work on the covertion of St Mary's, Pontyrhyl into Ty'r Santes Fair (our new home and my new studio)
Not a large work but one I regarded very much as complete, though it did spawn many more works of a similar theme and subequently became known itself as a 'study'
It was exhibited at Flowers East in 1996 (Paintings from Wales) and purchased from there by Nick Hegarty of Bridgend.
