Is there bacon…

Love is the devil…

A Francis Bacon sandwich at Tate Liverpool.

This wonderful old fruit is a favourite of mine, not least for his real-life antics (The Colony Room)  but his directness about his work. When asked about his framing Bacon simply stated he ‘used rectangles to cut down scale, to highlight, to focus, to point to the figure’.

“They are intensifiers”

Its for his framing and compositon that I love Bacons work, simular to Schiele the act of focusing on the figure, the line and curve. Its been pointed out my work has some simularities, this is completely accidental, possibly unconscious.
