BOB OXLEY: Born and living in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Bob Oxley is a self-taught artist specialising in low brow pop surrealism. Working in acrylic on canvas, Bob’s work explores the themes of the loss of natural habitat and species extinction. He references everything from photo-realistic wildlife to American low brow art as sources of inspiration behind his works. Bob said “The approach to my work is all about being in the moment, the act of making the work and giving myself over to the process and the chemistry which I have nurtured over the years. I wanted the work to look like it was made quickly and loosely but on inspection every brushstroke is considered and painted meticulously, something loose and free, but in fact is complex, which is what nature is all about.”
