Daniel MacCarthy The Winter of Our Lives, 2022 Watercolour on Gloss Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About The intersection of the man-made with the natural world form the basis of my work. Negative capability; the capacity to accept mystery and doubt rather than the demand for certainty, provides a useful insight into my approach to painting. In allegorical motifs or more oblique atmospheres, the work seeks to capture a place where uncomfortable realities seep in; a search for belonging, a presentiment of loss, anxiety and entropy. Hope too is evident; nature, redemptive if indifferent, is cherished for all its tangled complexity.

All artworks have been generously donated by the artists to raise money for The Hepatitis C Trust and when work is sold on the secondary market, it damages our relationship with the artist and prevents us from fundraising
