About this artwork
Mother feeding the young baby while sat on a rocking chair. The painting depicts the most natural and intimate scene using muted complimentary colours and as it was painted from a drawing it retains the expressive linear quality and semi abstract qualities that that has. The heavy dute canvas also brings attention to the surface of the painting and it's physicality.

« I am always trying to discover what the painting is about, the object matter is not the subject matter. »
Chris Macauley believes that a painting should work on a purely visual and descriptive level. The UK-based artist’s painterly and abstract works portray landscapes, as well as the figurative. When creating, Macauley tries to balance control with accidents. He isn’t interested in the realistic copying of his subject matter. Instead, and through color, his compositions radiate an ‘inner glow’.
