Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
The works submitted are studies I made on paper for larger concrete paintings. The first 3 (‘Aylesbury Abstraction I, II and III') focus on the Aylesbury Estate near Elephant and Castle which is currently undergoing demolition, the fourth card 'Honing In' is a detail from The National Theatre.
You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.
