Vanilla Snowdrop is an elegant figurative piece with subtle detailing. The impressionist style background accentuates the sensual feel of this artwork.
Tony's figurative painting is all about depicting the mood and intimacy within a moment, using a loose approach to his brushwork, trying to be spontaneous while carefully considering placement of strong contrasting values to create depth.
He has spent thousands of hours drawing figures from life, this has been fundamental to the development of his figurative painting style - mainly because he observes directly the little details in body language that can suggest all manner of narrative, his favourite one is that everyone deserves to feel loved.
