The glare of the giant floodlights in the middle distance visually herald and pictorially announce the imminent kick-off, as the crowds gather and make their way towards the beacon-like stadium ahead. In a slight illustrative departure for the critically acclaimed contemporary landscape artist, Paul Horton has opted for a decidedly monochrome palette in his very latest visual outpouring, entitled ‘Match of the Day’. Possessing all the habitual deft (compositional) touches we’ve grown to anticipate and love, this hand-signed giclee mounted/paper edition study graphically wants for nothing, let it be said; save for Horton’s adoring public to be raptured by its very presence on launch this early 2018. Hand-signed by the much-celebrated Horton himself, editions are strictly limited to just 95 from the outset; so we urge interested parties to make the call ASAP to avoid potential disappointment.
