by Katrina Grant • • 0 Comments
Tim McMonagle is a painter for whom the process of making a work is as important as the image itself. Painting directly on to linen, with no preparatory sketches, McMonagle characteristically introduces texture and depth through a robust use of impasto, sweeping brushstrokes and intensely rendered detail.
