Frank Notes

So to start with, my Dad was called Cyril. He didn’t like the name so the first part of his surname was chosen for his first name. Frank. This name says it all. He was, and so am I so there we have it in a nut shell or some kind of object. In my case the object is a little bigger, I will think on this one .

Let me introduce myself to you via this wonderful website designed by the talented Tania, who is a God send. A truly lovely woman, who I had the fortune to meet in Greenwich, at a workshop where we could learn about technological matters that were being newly introduced into the world much to my horror, ( I still haven’t recovered).

Onto the subject dearest to my heart, free expression and free your mind, and free it up to look beyond, and contemplate the energy that can be represented in a picture. Alongside the life of a piece of art is of paramount importance colour. This is the first thing viewers mention to me when they look at what I have done. You will see that I am not interested in photo- realism or being too literal, I work from the heart having worked for nigh on 40 years as an Art Psychotherapist/Teacher of Art. Having had the privilege to work with clients and students prepared to share their innermost thoughts and for them to express the heart of their matters, I have tried myself to impart a little of what I wish to connect with ( my internal dialogue), using art materials. I hope you enjoy my gallery.
