William has dedicated his life to the visual arts variously as Teacher, Critic, Curator and Author - and always as Painter. Fot the last 25 years he has focused on still-lives.
Each 'a little world, a tiny city, a paradigm and parallel reality to be explored in the imagination and realised in the act of painting'.
William works in natural light on fast surfaces using a muted colour palette. A regular cast of characters appear in his work often alongside ephemeral wildflowers. The painting and composition can change radically during the process of reconciling space, form and light onto the two dimensional surface of the canvas so the finished image is not always quite what it seems to be.
