Urge To Paint – IOTW Report

Urge To Paint

Keith Church dropped out of the Goldsmiths University of London in 1976, after completing his foundation courses, to paint.  Over the next six years he produced thousands of works.  He had intended to return to complete his degree, but was murdered in 1982. It’s one of the more notorious unsolved murders in England.

Church’s paintings were kept by an aunt who decided after 35 years to allow them to be shown for the first time at Goldsmiths.

  1. From the couple of pages of his work I glimpsed at, I only found a few that I would hang on my wall.

    The rest – well, I don’t think it’s good art.

    If it is, then maybe I missed a career at it. My sketches at 13 had me being accused of tracing. His? meh

    I would hang it if it were from my kids. It looks like kid’s work, to me.

    But I’m a moron with simple tastes.
