THE ART OF DARYL JOYCE : AMAZING CUSHING FRANKENSTEIN GALLERY


#FRANKENSTEINFRIDAY! Today we are proud to share with you the amazing work of Daryl Joyce... I have selected just a few of his pieces that feature Peter Cushing and his work with Hammer films and the Frankenstein films, he appeared in. For me, Daryl has really hit the spot with these paintings. So often I see work that manages to capture a likeness, but the composition seems to have suffered for it! Not in Daryl's case though. Daryl has a link below, that you can contact, should you wish to chat with him..or have any questions. It's had for me to choose a favorite here...how about you??? -Marcus
YOU can CONTACT Daryl : HERE!
 

Daryl:'The Curse of Frankenstein: This is painted in gouache, over three evenings. Size A3'


Daryl:'When I did this painting in August 2017, I didn't want to count my chickens, but maybe after five years of not having much enthusiasm for painting, I was my mojo might have come back - 'course it helps that I love Hammer films and I'm enjoying revisiting them.This was painted in gouache over four evenings in August 2017'.
 





Daryl: 'The sixth and last Hammer film to feature Peter Cushing as Baron Frankenstein. It's also number 4 in my effort to paint this hexology, before I move on to a different Hammer baddie. Painted in Gouache (opaque watercolour) over approximately one week'.

NEWS: CUSHING WATER COLOURS GO UNDER THE HAMMER


A PAIR of paintings by cinema’s master of horror Peter Cushing sold at auction for £1,150. The small watercolours by the Hammer Horror star were discovered on a valuation day at Alveston near Wellesbourne.

Far from terrifying, the pictures depict idyllic landscapes and were painted by Mr Cushing when he was a young man working in a surveyor’s office in the early 1930s, some years before he found worldwide fame on the silver screen. The actor was a keen artist and birdwatcher. His memorabilia has a strong following on both sides of the Atlantic.

Adrian Rathbone, Hansons Auctioneer’s Associate Director discovered the pictures which also included a signed photograph of the star. Estimated to fetch around £500, pre-sale interest from across the globe ensured they far exceeded expectations. They eventually sold to a London based collector.

The next Hansons valuation day in Alveston for pictures, antiques and collectables takes place on Friday January 29 from 1pm to 4pm at The Malt House, The Rookery.
