Robinson Golf Art

Many thanks to Oscar Diaz and Carlos Palomo, Presenters of the CANAL+ Spanish TV show, ' Locos Por El Golf '. Honoured to have my painting of Miguel featured straight after a section on him. The Mechanic! Thanks Guys! 

A warning to artists in the UK and Ireland.

As i'm in the Airport mood, I'll share with you some thoughts from a few people over the last six months. The comments were asking me If I painted any 'Modern Art'. I have to point out that 'Modern art' has been dead since 1970 and in my opinion since the mid 60s. I think they mean , have I abstracted or moved away from figurative work? Yes, is the answer. Just as experiments and to make me remember why it was that I'd spend so much time in Life classes and not stood in front of a canvas painting targets. I enjoy painting in my own way, with my own influences and the work just comes out as golfers at the moment, I'm sure I'll change soon. The Sports World is a selfish one even though they bang on about charity... I digress, don't start me. Oh just a little then...
In my opinion, Charity is when it hurts you to give, when you can't afford to give but do, not tax evasion and self promotion.
Here ends the sermon.
Just so you can see why I am a figurative painter. See below, 3 Robbo examples. My wife likes them!

As I'm not at the canvas I've decided to use a hi tech sketching tablet to record this month's events. It will get me in the mood for starting up the newsletters again and make me sketch (all be it with a brick) If all else fails, I'll just use photos.... The mag will be out Oct 1st.
