Esprit de Corps, Chris Stevens

Esprit de corps, 2011, 150 x 180cms. This painting was included in the exhibition REALITY, British Modern and Contemporary Painting which was hosted by the Sainsbury Centre, Norwich and The Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Being the curator of the exhibition made it a distinct advantage in having my work included in the show. This painting hung next to a Lucien Freud and Francis Bacon in the first show which was pretty cool, again being the curator made this a distinct possibility. The painting started life as a landscape/ seascape looking across the estuary at Loughros Point, Co. Donegal This transformed into a cliff face painted from memory. The figure was added later and completed the painting the painting is now in the collection of Mr Paul Eden, London.
