Clifford Etienne update

[wouter]

For those that didn't know (which included me), he has turned to painting while in prison:

He's damned good. And that 'In the Gym' picture is beautiful. I might buy a copy for my home gym. His work reminds me of that artist who painted a couple of the old Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield album covers.

He's obviously a soulful chap, Ettienne. What on earth must have been going through his mind when he went on that rampage.

That's Ernest Barnes, who apparently is his favorite artist:

Ernest Barnes! Great artist. Etienne has good taste. I'll have to write him sometime, he'll be an interesting man to talk to.

Impressive

I came across this article on him from November 2020:

Sparring with coach boyle painting is quality

That man has some serious artistic talent.

It makes you wonder why he spent years getting his brain rattled when he was a far better artist than he was boxer.

[dagosd2000]

He's got the goods

[margaret thatcher]

man has an unreal gift there, that is some legit a+ talent

[bigjack]

very talented,i'd hang one of those on my wall no problem

[oogiebe]

The man certainly has a 'style' to his work. Pleasantly surprised at his artistic prowess.

[Giancarlo]

Excellent art work.

There are a lot of very talented artists in prison.

I suspect there is some relationship between anti-social behaviour and having an artistic bent in some people.

Of course, they also have a lot of time on their hands and few outside distractions especially if doing a long lag.

[JxhDel.]

His art is quite impressive, as style and subjects. Looks like some stuff you will find in an estimated collection.

[Caractacus]

sheeyat, it looks like maybe he may have gotten his art training at the "Mickey Walker-School of Art " (?)
