Dear Erica, Oil and acrylic on canvas, 2019 - An imagined Moroccan or French Riviera scene where Francis Bacon may have penned one of his many letters to his dealer, Erica Brausen, requesting more money with which to make paintings.

So long Anthony Bourdain... Found these photos of my friends in Cafe Gandolfi a few years back with the late Anthony Bourdain. Colin (blonde) and Jamie (blue apron) had asked me to find these photos as nobody believed this had happened. Met Anthony in the toilet in Groucho St Judes on Bath St and somehow managed to persuade him to come down to Gandolfi where he and his team filmed us for a series they were making.. still not seen the footage! It was a blast and glad to have met the man, think we got Colins book signed! So long Anthony.. x - #anthonybourdain #kitchenconfidential #greatchef #chefs #writer #star #kitchen #kitchenlife #cafegandolfi #glasgow #nervous #starstruck (at Bar Gandolfi)
