Lets Not Make Life Anymore Difficult Than It Already Is
Through his work, Charming Baker likes to explore themes of love, life, death, terror, joy and despair, accompanied by dark humour and underlying references to the classics.
Lets Not Make Life Anymore Difficult Than It Already Is features a retro wallpaper design behind a painted image of a dog, based on an original oil and acrylic painting on linen - with buckshot holes. The incongruity of the image and the title is typical of Baker's wit and dark humour.
Of Charming Baker's work, Damien Hirst has commented: It's hard to say exactly what makes a painting great... Its flatness and its depth, its ease and its complexity, a kind of preciousness that's also kind of throwaway, a risk factor. Who gives a damn? Charming Baker's paintings are great.
An 11-colour silkscreen print with deckled edges, in a limited edition of 50.
Size (cm): 74 x 96
