Fraser King's natural artistic ability is self-evident. Where he excels is in the atmospherically charged emotion of his painting, capturing the idiosyncrasies of people's gestures or posture with accuracy, his use of the contrasts of strong light and shade contributes to the vitality and interest of his painting. From the tranquillity of his park scenes to the cosmopolitan buzz of café and street scenes, to musicians bring their instruments to uniform pitch in his orchestras in rehearsal, all capture the emotion of the moment in time.
