                                                                      Kelvin Harvey is the sort of artist that
                                                                      insists that it his work that should speak
                                                                      for him without any need of summary.
                                                                      And that is fine by me and Tubes.

                                                                      abstraction as his main means of
                                                                      expression and it appears that he is using
                                                                      a host of mediums to gain the look and
                                                                      feel of his work. I do like his style, hence
                                                                      his selection for TAG #4

                                                                      some of it evidently based in ‘reality’ and
