Barney Bubbles is described by some as "A radicle English artist". He was born in 1942 and died 1983. Bubbles did everything from paintings and sketches as well as graphic art. Through my personal judgement of Bubbles work, it appears to me a lot of his inspiration comes from the art form 'Art Nouveau' mixed with a bit of Cubism in areas of his work. I think its an interesting mix of art forms however as final piece, However, I don't agree with the mix of media and personally don't think anything interesting can come of this as I dont find it as a new, unqiue work of his own. On positive note, I like his careful use of color, his carefully proportioned the use of color on the page so you're attention isn't drawn to one part of the page.
Other work audiences may be formillia with by Bubbles is the weekly music magazine NME. Bubbles also designed a couple of posters for art exhibitions for other artists, and a few furniture designs which were published in 'The Face' in 1981.
Soon after his sucesses in the late 70's - Early 80's, Bubbles committed suicide in 1981 trapping himself in fumes, gassing himself.
