Catalogue Note
Karen Wilkin comments:
Bush's special gifts are evident in these uninhibited, spontaneous wateroclours and gouaches; his extraordinary sense of colour, his generous drawing, his odd and engaging approach to structure... The paper works are so direct and energetic that we feel we are looking over the artist's shoulder, watching him think.
