Felix

Unlike many of us, Felix is not afraid to begin. He pounces towards the canvas in total engagement, and colours begin to build. In a composition of stripes, smears and dapples, Felix arranges fields of paint into blooming bodies of colour and light. This practice pairs with a meditative focus, compiling and composing marks until he decides it’s time to stop.

Artbox is an important part of Felix’s week and a significant catalyst for his creative expression, providing space and mediums with which to experiment. Paul, Felix’s father, explains with admiration that Felix has no aim. Paul describes Felix’s intense interest in observing the world around him, going to cafes and people-watching or gazing out the car window. However, this is the only outside force affecting his work. He isn’t clouded by ambition; fame and money mean nothing to him. Felix engages in the art purely for himself. “It’s very interesting to live with someone who doesn’t think something should be anything other than it is,” Paul muses.

Many of Felix’s pieces are on canvas, which we’ll be adding to the website. If you are interested in any of his original artwork, get in touch.
