Trevor Sutton

Richard looked at my blog and the work I have done for Blackburn Museum. He recommended an artist (Trevor Sutton) that  he thought could progress the studies I have done involving the beetles. 

I can see the relationship between the colour of the beetles and Trevor Sutton's work. Watercolour isn't something I have particularly worked with in the past but after researching Trevor Sutton's artwork it has inspired me to do this.   Quote from www.trevorsutton.com :
'Their character lies captured between layer upon layer of semi-transparent oil based glazes that build up a visible history of colour and brush marks. This process gives the work a physical and atmospheric quality  buit does now provide specific pictorial or geographic detail.'
