My perception of the world is always from a comical point of view. Spending a considerable part of my life in different countries and absorbing various cultures and historical backgrounds, I have reached the conclusion that what matters the most,is the human ability to laugh. I use a grotesque as a tool of social commentary, not to criticize, but to amuse and entertain. I'm also blending humour with serious things in an effort to translate daily life in to magic and fantasy . By combining all possible media I'm trying to create my own world.
STEVEN LAMB uses his camera to record a possible scene and then works and reworks the row material into a painting which bears very little resemblance to its source. He paints to an outline previously prepared on paper and transferred to canvas on a board. He uses paste and fine sand to enhance the texture of the undercoats of acrylics. His faces are done with watercolor over pastels. He sometimes uses a German pencil for fine details. He achieves a depth to his acrylics by the judicious use of swab dipped in alcohol to bring out the highlights.
