Michael Calver is based in Tiverton, South West


Painter. Materials: Golden Acrylic on canvas. Modernist re-scan. Piloting imagery from architecture, sketch books, dreams and a long memory reach. Disparate elements try to make common ground. Trail and error prevail. Colour space establishes mood and disquiet.
