Andrew Allfree by Howard Hodgkin

Howard Hodgkin covers a vast range of emotions in his work from the spectacular, 'When did we go to Morocco?' (1988-1993) with its vivid and energetic colouring to the deeply melancholic, 'Sunset' (1990-1993) which features dark and heavy brushstrokes overwhelming the bright colours beneath. He tries to describe feelings and it has been the subject of much debate as to how far he succeeds.
