Bruce's dedication to Impressionism has been a lifelong pursuit. He grew up immersed in the world of painting. His parents were acclaimed British artists, and he completed his first oil paintings whilst still at school. Now, years later, he remains an immensely popular and successful artist, still consumed by the craft of painting.
Eric admits that much of his work is concerned with mankind's (ultimately fruitless) struggle to tame the natural world. Into these natural settings, he throws in motifs from the modern human world: a suspension bridge; a chandelier; a fairground ride; even a tightrope walker. The effect is jarring, surreal and exciting.
