This gallery shows mixed-media works created roughly from between 1989 to 2007, either on canvas or on board. I have used material ranging from glass fragments, colour glass fragments and mirror fragments, to wax, gypsum and clay, to melted polystyrene, wax, textile fragments and metal foil. Many of these are not for sale because they would be too heavy or fragile to ship by normal means.
The textural surfaces are then painted over with either matt or iridescent paint.
The works are abstract, but they all have elements of landscape or cityscapes discernible within each composition.
There are also included here more recent works, in which I have used lighter materials for easier conveyance.

Biography
I was born in the UK but since 1996 have lived and worked in Budapest, Hungary, and I now have Hungarian as well as British citizenship. I began my creative path at the age of 19 and to begin with was totally self-taught and it was always the aim to let images and impressions from within come more or less spontaneously. For me, the whole process has always represented a kind of 'soul work.' In the 1980's however, I did attend two fairly rigorous two-year part-time courses - the one diploma in painting at leamington College of FE and a Certificate in Craft Materials at Coventry University. These introduced me to several new techniques and a deeper understanding of art history.
I work mainly with mixed-media pieces on board using an array of material ranging from glass fragments, fabric pieces and wax. I am fascinated by materials that reflect and use a myriad of gold hues, silvers and luminescents against matt backgrounds.
I also create mixed-media paper collages, again, usually in A4 size. In these, I tend to employ a bastardised marbling technique for the background and then work into each composition using ink pen, gel pens, metal flakes and fragments of other paper, or materials with either holographic or luminescent surfaces.
I currently have several pieces represented by the Szentendre-based, virtual MiDo Galéria.
I am actively involved in the alternative Budapest art scene, participating in one-night events such as the Vad Art exhibitions, and am part of a well-established life drawing group, through which I have had the opportunity twice now to participate in two group exhibitions at prestigious venues. Since pandemic restrictions, I have also been participating again in the weekly Gozsdu Montmartre event, at Gozsdu Court in the city centre of Budapest.
Whilst in Coventry, England in the late 80's and early 90s, I exhibited regularly with an assorted group of artists called the 'Dream Illustrators' based near the city centre, as well as putting on solo exhibitons. I also lived in Brighton from 1994-1996 and exhibited with the Best Cave Gallery in several group exhibitions.

Budapest has its very own event, following in the tradition of the Parisian Montmartre, for artists seliing their wares in the open air, in the city centre! It takes place every Thursday from 10 30 until 6. There are artists selling original works in media ranging from figurative to naive, to abstract works on Canvas, as well as cards, badges, jewellery, and other kinds of keepsakes.
To find this market, alight from the metro and Deák Ferenc Square, and walk along Király Utca. Gozsdu Udvar is an old city-centre courtyard that has been renovated in recent years to become one of Budapest's most well-known city attractions..

This exhibition is a little retrospective, as many of the pictures are older ones that were reworked in recent years.
They comprise of mixed-media textural pieces on board, incorporating a range of materials such as cotton, bandages, glass fragments from smashed car windows, marbles, polystyrene, metal flakes, wax, paper and using acrylic paints and enamel. The title of the show therefore, is hopefully self-explanatory.

I have recently had a somewhat retrospective exhibition at the Peter Manseld Gallery in Csepel, Budapest. The show opened on the 28th May, until the 26th June. 17 of my larger mixed-media pieces were on show: some of these were older pieces, others older but recently reworked, others still much more recent.
All are textural mixed-media pieces on board, using materials ranging from bandages and cotton, to wax, marbles and glass fragments from smashed car windows and polystyrene, to acrylics and enamel, washed over eith luminescent paints.
Reviews and comments
Œuvre très lumineuse, top !
Lynda, my name is Glenn. I am a self-taught artist in the realm of surrealism, and psychedelic drawings, and paintings. I am a writer of poems, song lyrics, and some short stories. I have taken a mass of art college art classes, I was once studying to become an art teacher, but an illness brought my life to a halt, but I am ok now. I am currently writing a true story of my experience with a parallel universe. My interest in your work with wax, just peaked my imagination. I have been successful with egg tempura, also. Later, my friend, nice to meet you, I love your icon with the black hat!!! Cheers, Moondog(Glenn)
bravo! et bon courage
well done! and good luck
