The Fantastic Mr. Parkes


Fun, spiritual, thoughtful and brilliant, Michael Parkes for sometimes all that is required is idly whimsy and erotic fancy.

Angel Affair

He is to me both heretic and staunch believer. His art transcends the sometimes awful snobbery associated with fine art. If you are not familiar with is work here are a morsel to brighten your day.


The man is a devout to his craft and I encourage you to seek him out.

Wishing you a brilliant Sunday.
Warmest regards,
Simone

    His work is quite whimsical, giving you a different outlook. Did not know of his work, thanks for sharing. Love the one with the books and reading. Have a wonderful Sunday.

    Well if that's what angels look like, I'm glad I'm not a Catholic priest.

    I love these, too. They remind me of a cross between Maurice Sendak and Maxfield Parrish, both extraordinary artists who infused delicate colors with clearly-drawn fantasy elements. Sigh. I could go on and on about art all day. :)
