Bobs Final Work - 2011
my_end_my_beginning_001.jpg

At 75 year of age and with some significant health issues, Bob has found working on large canvases increasingly difficult during the last few years. In 2011 he created these three paintings to sum up his spiritual and creative journey as a world artist. In 2012 he announced that he was retiring from painting and that this was to be his last multi-piece work. See the news article for the full story.
