Yeah mate, they're very marmite but I absolutely love them. He just loved painting landscapes, moved from my village to North Wales so he could do it more. He died a couple of years back walking though the hills that he painted. Very fitting way for him to go.
Glad you like them lads, like I said people seem to either love them or hate them. And Steve, I get what you're saying. He painted a self-portrait that makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. I've always thought that there is more to them than just a nice view.
Squarepusher, I believe that one is in Cardiff Museum. The first one is his most famous piece, it's in the Tate I think. Will post more later.
