What would you say your job title is?
I am an Art Hole.

What kind of stuff did you draw when you were a kid?
Laughing clowns and dead people, you know, the normal kind of stuff.

When did you first know you wanted to be an artist?
When I saw Tony Hart living the dream.

Are you professionally trained?
Yes, I was created on a secret island just off the coast of the United Kingdom. I trained for many years drawing and observing ‘reality’ through the television.
 
What was your job before you became an artist?
I made organic cheese and wine in the countryside. Oh no hang on, I didn’t do that, that’s what you’re suppose to do at the end of your life if you’re successful.

Do you prefer gallery or street work?
Each is great and both offers the space to exhibit ideas differently.

With your street work, is the idea of the piece pre-planned, or do you see an object and come up with an idea there and then?
I find the object I want to draw on and then come up with the idea. I enjoy the challenge of thinking of ideas on the spot and then creating the artwork there and then.
 
What is it like working alongside such a great roster of artists at Pictures on Walls?
It’s great to be included on POW and I’m very happy they have supported my work.

Do you collect art by other artists? If so, who?
I put all my money into the investment group that own’s Hirst’s diamond skull and right now we are looking for a buyer.

If someone was to say you could only use one medium for the rest of your life what would it be?
The blood and corpses of talentless celebrities.

How much longer are you planning to carry on being an artist?
This interview is the last thing I will ever do. No not really and I hope to continue for as long as my brain tells me too.

What does the future hold for you? Are you planning on having any solo exhibitions in the near future?
My time at the moment is taken up by lots of different projects but it would be good to concentrate on a larger exhibition.
