Sean Hewitt: Although a Cornish based artist I spent almost all of my childhood in the Middle East which inspire me in a lifelong love of colour, particularly the glorious sunshine yellows and azure iridescent blues of the Mediterranean landscape. This exciting contrast of hot and cool colours is reflected in my work.  Sensuous, sweeping shapes are punctuated with energetic vibrant colours which dominate the moods and emotions in my paintings. I try to match those early childhood adventures with colour with the local landscape in particular the rugged brutal beauty of the clay tips and the sweeping South East Cornish skies and seas. "I see my work as experiments in colour balance really. Taking the initial idea from my surroundings and then layering dramatic shapes of colour - interweaving them above and below the original shapes and ideas. Music too plays an integral part of my life and I can’t live without it - something is always playing in the background when I am working and naturally that effects the outcome. Essentially my work is an emotional response to the people and places I love. I guess the music is just a hook to hang it on."
