GREAT INTERIORS HECTOR McDONNELL HECTOR McDONNELL GREAT INTERIORS Exhibition dates 3rd - 21st November 2015 21 Bruton St, London, W1J 6QD I have been working on the paintings in this exhibition over the last two years. They concentrate on what has been a constant theme for me - an endless fascination with interiors both for what they tell us about the people who inhabit these places even when they are not there and the curiosity aroused by half-seen glimpses spied through windows and doors. The mystery of the not-quite-known is forever enticing.
