Reblogged from Destructive Testing:
I was introduced to Sir Terry Frost's work by Stephen Macinnis (http://sbmacinnis.wordpress.com/. Knowing something of his life and motivation for painting does heighten my appreciation for his work.
"In prisoner-of-war camp I got tremendous spiritual experience, a more aware or heightened perception during starvation, and I honestly do not think that awakening has ever left me."
"Frost's work reflects his gratitude and joie de vivre at having survived wartime incarceration; it is full of colour, light and the pleasure of existence 'a sense of delight in front of nature'.
Some great images of Terry Frost's work.
