Since 1992, Hoyes adopted the Etching medium as a means of expression, for its details, its intimacy and craftsmanship. The deliberate implied rhythmic lines and tonal gestures of The Revival Series (for which he is well known) have found new life.
The mediums fluidity, intimate scale, and delicate calligraphic lines has becomes a personal kind of gesture, like a private note or letter evoking different emotional textures. A body of work like the Rag Series, with its imperfect lines with rich textures and nuanced tonalities, has found new terrain. http://www.Bernardhoyes.com.
“My Artistic concerns has been with spiritual testimonies, using Contemporary expressions as the driving force to established a Visual Voice. Speaking and Calling to our inner spirit, beckoning into worlds and regions of sacredness and sanctified offerings in search of the life force. My new works have gotten transformative.”

“New insights in my application of the Painting discipline have since emerged as a result. There are a few from the Rag series, which are well known. “Where she found her wings” “Rag Nouveau” and “Rag in Vogue” All inspired by the notion of having arrived, irregardless of how we got there, Ragged, but aspiring in style. A Modernist discourse has evolved. Raw Materials, technology, and raw textures have appeared. Templates harkening back to the Rag Series of the Seventies, when Raw materials and graphics were prevalent in my Artistic exploration.”
