© Brian Jones 2007 Back to New Paintings Gallery

‘Fire’ date : 2007 size : 20” x 20” medium : oil notes : In this painting, which is part of Jones' body of target works, Brian casts his eye over a classic archery target and comes up with a striking New Pop work. comment : “I've always had a fascination with targets, bullseyes and the like; this stems from shooting galleries at fair grounds; places where I can disappear in to the crowd and observe the side shows. My great-grandmother had a hoop-la stall on Pat Collins' fair in the first decade of the 20th century.”
