About the Item

Oil painting by Ta Byrne I love painting people, but I don’t want to paint portraits, I want my people to have a bit of character, a little of the night about them I want them to be unique. A crowd of men dressed up in top hat and tails, each with a story to tell, here we have three gangs something big is about to happen but we are not sure what. Trouble is brewing lots of sidewards glances and stares and whispering behind the hands a few eager to get on with it, but a lot went to hold back and wait and see what happens while some are trying desperately to keep out of the way but don’t want to miss any action. My people paintings have a story to tell, but you will never really know what that story is, but you can speculate. I love painting people, but I don’t want to paint portraits, I want my people to have a bit of character, a little of the night about them. For the conspirators, I like the toughness I want a bully in there but I like him to get his comeuppance (there is always a bully somewhere) and a boss with all his hangers on, the people who do the bosses bidding.
