" Hampton
continues the impressionist journey with the vigilance of an artist
who enjoys the apparent disorder of form and colour "
Peintre et sculpteur du Languedoc
|
|

|
|
" In
Hampton's paintings the light is born from a myriad of tiny flat
touches of colour, intense, but never violent and always carefully
well-ordered….he approaches the figurative in an abstract manner…it
is sturdy work which denotes an artist by a mark, his mark, permitting
him to forget his signature "

"
By-passing all the schools, Hampton knows better than anyone how to
master curve and light, how to fluidify flowing water,to speak with
the clouds and colour "
