Robert Owen Bloomfield, Mixed Media artist
Robert's art combines ideas of his two favourite artists (Rothko and Gormley) by placing figures in stark and sometimes harsh landscapes with unyielding horizons. His favourite material is spray paint: “I often used spray paint as a teen when out creating guerrilla art with friends in London. The idea of using street material in a more traditional way appeals to me."
Robert prefers working with the cool tones of grey and black as it leaves more to the viewer’s imagination. The art he creates comes from endless introspection, and a variety of inspiration. His work is thoughtful, and presented in an accessible way for a wide audience. In his own words: “Everyone should have an original painting in their home.”
