Kieron Williamson painter

It is often said, when strangers look at contemporary art that 'a seven year old could have done that'.
Take the time to look at the work of Kieron Williamson.
It is very rare that an adult can produce works of this quality, they maybe dismissed as mere landscape water colours, which many are, but you can not deny the skill. Tracy Emin should take note. Art is changing and skill is back. I saw her on Roger Scrutons- why beauty matters being interviewed regarding her bed, David Frost asked her why her bed was art, her reply 'because I say it is', seeing her on School of Saatchi last week asking young artists the exact same question yet refusihg her own answer reveals just how weak her thinking is and being a conceptual artist, where the idea is elevated above the object, she needs to explain her ideas better. Simply the worst successful artist of her generation. I am a fan of Duchamp though presenting his idea again and again for nearly a century by Emin and others is just being stuck in a rut, her work is stuck, stuck, stuck.
Scruton argues that beauty is the central pursuit of man. Brave enough to stand up to prevailing though fading fashion, he believes beauty raises us emotionally, spiritually and morally. His passion is addictive, his ideas arent so far from where art trends are moving. Emin and her generation are increasingly looking like old, past it pretenders.
The Picturecraft gallery where Williamsons paintings fetched figures over £17000 had visitors reduced to tears, art that powerful cannot be written off,. He has been estimated by some to be the greatest child artist since Picasso and seeing his work this claim may not be overhype. The works, though traditional show a true maturity in observation of light and a real delicacy of touch.
Kieron said, 'It's absolutely excellent. I was only expecting to sell one or two. Painting is my favourite hobby but I like football too.'
