The statement of Danny O’Connor, based in Liverpool artist: “The paintings are built up in layer upon layer of paint which give the pieces great depth of field. Contrasts play a big role in what I do, it’s probably the most resounding feature throughout all of my work in one way or another. I like to mix natural flowing lines with harsh diagonals. Clean crisp areas of color with layered messy splashes of paint. I’m trying to achieve something that appears both modern and almost futuristic whilst retaining a raw traditional aesthetic”.
