In this piece, I explored the tension between vibrant, geometric abstraction and the raw, emotive power of the human…

Born in Scotland, Robert Walker utilizes oil paints on canvas to craft his masterpieces. His style, described as 'geo-figurative,' employs abstract expressionist techniques in conjunction with traditional verdaccio for flesh tones. His compositions, a blend of organic and geometric forms, stimulate viewers into partaking in the narrative of his subjects, evoking a deep understanding of the figure's semiotics. Enjoying also word play and quirk-created moments he also employs narratives within a still life and landscape environment, often with a heart theme to express his love for others and life.
