Guffogg's approach to painting is almost alchemical. Through each stroke, he transforms raw materials into something profound—an enduring expression of thought, memory, and emotion that transcends the limitations of time. Guffogg’s mastery of intertwining time and identity reaches its pinnacle in his At the Still Point of the Turning World series, a title drawn from T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets. These works transcend time and space, functioning as visual poetry that seeks to capture the infinite. There are energetic forces in these paintings. When asked how the artist creates this sense of movement and gravity, guiding the viewer into the painting, he said; “It’s hard to explain how I know. There isn’t a thought or thoughts, or my inner voice speaking to me. It is a feeling that goes beyond where words go and I know a painting is done when I can sense it the painting is breathing on its own and will continue to do so after it leaves the studio.”
