Dick Watkins is one of Australia’s pioneering Abstract artists. Throughout his career he has been ridiculed for producing work described as nothing more than "high minded scribble" yet has been simultaneously hailed as "Australia’s best abstract colour painter". In 1996 Dick Watkins became one of the first Australian artists to sign to management, finding himself in the uncomfortable position whereby critics became both friend and foe. An insight into the inner mind of this elusive character explores the artistic process, his driving influences and includes stories from those who know him best.
