I've recently moved house. It's closer to work, so I can cycle there and cut two hours off of my daily travel time. Which is awesome.

Speed paintings for the negotiated brief. I had planned to create a number of these, throughout the brief, with varying time limits (starting at 10 minutes each, then extending if I want to work into them).

Thought I'd feature another artist who I've been following for a while. Wesley has a very creepy and distinctive style to his work, which is probably why I love it so much. From his final pieces, right down to his sketch work. His painting style is something I'd like to work towards eventually with my own work. Definitely an artist I will continue to watch. I first discovered his work when I came...
