TOE IN THE WATER BY BOB QUINN 23/09/2013
Quinn's artistic style is deeply rooted in expressionism, with a profound understanding of anatomy that allows him to abstract and manipulate the human figure to convey emotion and narrative. His work is often described as a poignant exploration of the "drama and nobility in the most ordinary of human activity," capturing moments of sadness, humour, and joy. He cites a diverse range of artistic influences, including the masterful sculptors Auguste Rodin, Jacob Epstein, and Alberto Giacometti, as well as painters Jean-François Millet and Edgar Degas.
