The Story
Bangers and Mash
This painting is based on Van Gogh’s beautiful and evocative work ‘The Potato Eaters’ (1885), portraying a decent, hard-working family sitting down to a very simple meal in humble surroundings.
I’ve tried to recreate the mood, the atmosphere, the intimacy and dignity of the occasion, while transferring the composition to a believable modern setting. I hope Vincent would approve.
All paintings are in acrylic on canvas (mounted on a rigid support) and framed.
