THE ARTIST'S STORY
The Nova Scotia Love Potion
❖
Richard Levine
With his unique language of re-interpretive digital collage, Richard Levine transforms the historical myth and legend of Sir John Colquhoun, 16th of Colquhoun, 18th of Luss, and 1st Baronet of Nova Scotia.
Here Richard uses colour, pattern and several carefully composed signifiers to create a fresh perspective in a richly layered scene, offering clues to the truth of a character whose life blurred the lines between superstition and scandal.
