Hand-signed Acrylic, Emulsion and Ink On Board original by Duncan McAfee.

Created as a response to collages of old photographs he crafted in his youth, Duncan McAfee considers his 2025 collection to be a collaboration with his younger self, introducing his gritty improvisational abstract style to personal, environmental and societal issues.

With an incredible sense of depth which mirrors the texture of his collages, the artworks are initially painted in layers, after which McAfee defaces his work, ‘ruining’ the paintings with blocks of dark colour or random markings before fixing the destruction with a new layer of paint – challenging himself to work as intuitively as possible. His uniquely improvisational technique fuels his signature sense of chaos and disorder.

'I try to get as much contradiction in as possible. They’re bright, fun and messy.'

In the past, McAfee began each painting by throwing a glass of red wine at a blank canvas. Now, working with a longer lasting substrate he has created himself, McAfee uses the ‘wine’ as a finishing touch, honouring the roots of his creative process.

Taking the motifs of his Exploding Heads series a step further, McAfee creates a riotous and intense horde of domestic objects, body parts and facial features, representing modern day economic and political anxieties through a disorientating and distorted lens. Influenced by a wealth of sources, from the unsettling figurative artworks of Francis Bacon and George Condo t o newspaper cartoons, the artist builds a sense of impending doom with his visceral images by drawing on his own anxieties and experiences.

McAfee vehemently believes that it is impossible for him to set the meaning of the work. The viewer themselves, and the context in which they view the piece, completely alters the meaning – as McAfee says, 'it’s got nothing to do with the intentions of the artist.'

Great non stuffed toys. My dogs love them!
Size: For Medium and Large Breed, Color: 3 Pack
My 2 mini schnauzers LOVE these toys! I LOVE them for several reasons. They is no stuffing inside they can rip open and swallow. There is no strings attached to it like other dog toys that my younger schnauzer loves to pull apart and eat. They play tug of war with them, and so far have held up great. They are a squeeke toy, which the dogs love...me, not so much, but I definitely put up with it. Highly recommend these!

Your dogs will love them!
Size: For Medium and Large Breed, Color: 6 Pack
I’m giving this five stars because it was exactly what they claimed it would be. The only negative is our small Papillon tore these to shreds. perhaps, all cloth style toys would be the same.

Not advertised for chewers and it isn’t.
Size: For Medium and Large Breed, Color: 5 Pack
As a play toy for tugging and fetching it would be fantastic. Chew toy? Not so much. In five minutes our 9 month old English Springer Spaniel tore off a foot and started eating the cellophane. Took it from him and removed the cellophane from the leg and trimmed the shredded foot. Gave it back and he chewed off an ear and started on the neck. Had to throw it out. It’s a shame because the price was good, the characters are cute and the squeaker is loud and generates excitement. For non-chewers I highly recommend. For chewers, look elsewhere.
