Robert Haworth, aka The Butterflyman
My motivation comes from deep within my heart and soul because art is my life. My artwork does not come from any external inspiration but from my feelings, emotions, and imagination. I feel what I can only describe as a fireball of energy inside me, a fusion of feelings and emotions that come out when I paint. This energy needs to be controlled, and my artwork serves as an outlet for it.
When I paint, I see another world that is completely different from the one around me. I feel at one with the paintbrush, needing silence and no distractions while I work. In this state, I feel calm, relaxed, and able to escape to a more exciting world within my mind and heart. When I look at my work the day after, I can see the beauty of what I have created. It gives me a great sense of satisfaction and happiness, making me feel on top of the world.
My paintings allow my imagination to run wild, imagining different worlds and dimensions with strange characters that appear in my work. I think deeply about different theories and have an extraordinary imagination, which is why my work is so distinctive. Painting allows me to express myself fully, creating the most outrageous pieces without hurting anyone. Some people think I am strange and mad because they don't understand me, but others say that I am unique, like no one they have ever met before. I cannot change who I am, and I believe that people who don't understand me are still curious.
My aim is to be recognized as a unique and talented artist. I want people to experience the intensity of my paintings, enjoy them, and talk about them for years to come. My artwork is permanently displayed on the walls of Leo Fine Art, owned by the art collector at The Mirrie Dancer Cafe and Bakery, 18 Wood St, Lytham Saint Annes FY8 1QS.

I look forward to future opportunities and aspire to be an inspired artist of the world and a great role model, proving that you can achieve great things.
