| Mr. Buxton is emerging as a serious artist after years of "hobby
painting". His style is an endearing mix of pointalism and symbolism,
influenced by artists Odilon Redon, Edvard Munch and Georges Seraut. The
juxtaposition of a mealoncholy mood with the brilliance of nature in earth,
sky and water- often ocean scapes at sunset from the perspective of a beach-
creates curious reflective, almost nostalgic feelings, as well as an awe of
creation. The scenes, though based on certain locations, function as
archetypal places in the subconscious.
