Cyril Croucher




"Cyril Croucher b.1951 Living and working in Cornwall, his surroundings have a huge influence on his painting. Cyrils current work grew out of a fascination with the height of harbour walls viewed from a low tide perspective, and with the buildings which are built on the piers and quays. He says, the sense of height one feels when looking up at the walls from within the harbour gave me the same feeling as looking upwards at the immense space inside a cathedral. I have tried to capture this feeling by introducing elements and memories from my past I hope to create a sense of timelessness, calm and intrigue."
