Bristol. This urban art, popularized by the likes of Banksy, endeavored to blend the fine art techniques with the raw street art.
I am influenced by masters such as Sargent, Turner, Van Gogh, early Picasso and modern-day artists such as Christian Hook, Jake Evans Wood, Ian Francis, Diarmuid Kelley, Francois Bard and Conor Harrington.
From a very young age I had a fascination for art. Long before I developed any artistic abilities, I would make people, such as my parents, friends and even visitors, draw for me. I would hold up a picture and say “Draw this for me.” I was quite a taskmaster, as I would make them start over again if they made any errors.
