Distinctly Grahame Sydney
Television (Full Length) – 2006
If I was to draw the Hawkduns, or something like that, or use the Hawkduns in a painting, I spend most of the time just making them up. And people still think they’re the Hawkduns just because the profile is similar.– Grahame Sydney on painting a local mountain range
Inside the frame, the artist is god. You recreate the world according to your own wishes.– Grahame Sydney
