Henry Lawrence is a British Painter, ceramicist and sculptor based in Shanghai. He mainly focuses on sentimental and colour driven work. Abstraction for him is very personal, it’s a feeling from which you get internal inspiration from, which then has to be translated into something physical. Its physicality is currently constructed into paintings. Creating textural surfaces, landscapes, portraits that have a depth for a persons intrigue or discovery. In some cases combining many different colours in an astute and complex way. Each brush stroke has to be discovered from within and it manifests itself on to the surface with experience, learned skill and precision. All these emotions combine and accumulate in his current works.
