The idea has always held a special appeal for Bouchard that, with a few simple materials such as pencil and paper, oil paints and canvas, it is possible to create a painted world of light and space that anyone can enter: a surreal world.
His two main sources of inspiration are the classical architecture that surrounds him in the City of Bath where he lives and the light and landscapes of the Middle East where he spent his formative years.
As a boy he lived in Lebanon and Bahrain. Later, he travelled to Saudi Arabia where he developed his skills as an artist. Desert sunsets, visits to other countries such as Oman and Jordan and even to the great 'Empty Quarter' or 'Rub'al Khali' of Arabia have fuelled his imagination and provided inspiration for his paintings.
Philip Bouchard hopes you enjoy this attempt to document some of his work to date.
