Degree in Fine Art 1978 - 1981

These paintings were part of a series of Film Star portraits and Self-portraits
completed for my Degree Show in June 1981 at Portsmouth Polytechnic.
They also featured in my One Man Exhibition at the Lord Mountbatten Gallery, Portsmouth, Hampshire in July 1981

Each painting was airbrushed using acrylic paints and were approximately 4ft in height.
This 'Men Only' painting (Below) caused quite a bit of controversy at the time of my Degree Show. This picture gives you some idea of the scale of this painting 10ft x 10ft with myself pictured standing in front

The self-portrait below was part of the Northern Young Contemporaries 1981 show and was photographed for the Photography Year book 1981 by John Walker
