SNAPSHOTS OF BATH’S CULTURAL LIFE

QUINCE CHARMING

In a time fi lled with much contemplation, Alex Callaway’s observational still life paintings off er a particular appeal. They capture the magic in the mundane, slow moments when we allow ourselves the time and space to sit and gaze into the middle distance. His works are inspired by William Blake’s poetry, and he paints to, as Blake wrote, “to see a world in a grain of sand”.
