About Conor


I paint the male figure, referring to the masculinity of urban culture. I am interested in the dynamics between opposing elements. Aerosol and oils, abstraction and figuration, concrete and canvas, chaos and control.

"Great!Creative!Really cool!!"

"i need to know the title of the second piece for art!!! please help"

"Just beautiful! Your work really does show the chaos of our society, in this era, and the blurring of ourselves in the process of taking in all this vast new wealth of information."

"J'aime beaucoup les effets de textures, les transparences qui refletent fortement la "culture de rue" dans ce qu'elle a de violent, de difu, transparent, aussi impalpable."

"ConorI really like your work, i too am an artist. your perception of your work "chaos and control" is very accurate."

"This I can relate to. This is gorgeous."

"Great work. The mix of figure and explosive background in these works kind of remind of the paintings of Ian Francis. It would be great to see both artists in a show together."

"There is much to see in this art; at first glance it is off putting; second glance pulls one into the art. There are very definite contrasts here. Masculinity of urban culture?; ? meaning masculine as the destruction of environment? as opposed to the feminine being creation and/or rebirth?At any rate - thought provoking artwork."

"The positive facial shapes are well executed. The backgrounds are a bit busy and dull for my taste. Nice work!"

"weird"
