About Happy Times
This Big Apple viewpoint will always be a classic - a place where every tourist goes to soak up that NY energy. Tom says: "Always so tempting to paint this part of NY either with wet roads or nighttime reflections, but Times Square looks fab in the sun too. In this piece I have concentrated on making the bright colours from signage or yellow cabs really 'pop' by using darker contrasting tones in the shadows of the buildings. I was in two minds whether to throw out my collection of 'Trump' snippets from a few years ago, but low and behold his presence in the media recently has given me ample cause to dust them off and have another go.... with a 'fake' billboard. "
About Tom Butler
"Being challenged daily and discovering new and exciting ways of pushing boundaries keeps me motivated. My mixed media landscapes have something to say, which I like to express with collage and typography."
Butler creates this narrative with an expert use of characterisation; the people that occupy his scenes, a stylised representation of society that has often been compared to L.S. Lowry, are complemented and modernised with Butler’s collages.His inclusion of newspaper text, slogans, statements or a single word, adds a depth and intrigue that keeps the audience hooked.This murmur from the artist, a quiet commentary accompanying the scene itself can be likened to the hum of the city, the gentle chatter of a metropolis. With this, Butler brings an essence of the City onto our walls and into our homes.
