by Simon Findlay

£1,046.64

"I remember feeling like a bear dipping his hand into a pot of honey as I plunged my fist into the 20 litre paint bucket, pulling out bottle after bottle, just going and going, losing my mind more with each scoop.⁠" What was supposed to be the first colourful piece since finishing the exploration into blue for a year, was initially found to be dissatisfying. The artist then threw litres of white paint until he was satisfied.
Acrylic on tarpaulin.

This work can be installed directly onto walls with nails using the eyelets built into the material, it can also be stretched over wooden stretcher bars if preferred.
