| My architectural work is very public. My drawing, painting, designs and installation concepts are private, rarely exhibited and virtually never for sale. This piece has become a study for a mural at a grand scale, say 30 feet long at least. It is an interpretation and record, from memory, of the theatrical experience and Bermudian pastime of hurricane watching. Its intent lies in its abstract qualities, atypical colour, grand scale and the mass of people. |
