Karl Maughan Interview with Denizen

Karl Maughan was interviewed by Damien Woolnough from Denizen and muses on his practice and shares some insights into other aspects of his life.

"Painting is hard work. You need to spend the hours in front of the canvas to bring your work to fruition. There’s no way around it. You have to fight a round with the paint. That’s the brilliant thing. You start off with a vague idea and the paint starts changing things. You always struggle. Van Gogh said that it feels like there’s a pane of glass between you and the subject. You just have to get closer."
