Mike Bayne: Artless

June 4 through to August 22, 2020

 

 

“I like to think of my work as expressing childlike wonder at the ordinary world.  Like trying to imagine seeing it for the first time.” MB 

 

Over the years, Kingston-based painter Mike Bayne has been trying to get the details right: “It seems to get more intricate every few years,” he says, about the evolution of his practice,”as I become unsatisfied with the level of detail.” Bayne’s paintings are subtly coloured and intensely realized. He locates himself within a tradition of painters working in a scrupulously representational mode – Johannes Vermeer, Givoanni Antonio Canaletto, Andrew Wyeth..painters who inhibit spaces towards the meditative and melancholic.
