The Artist as Photographer February 12th, 2021, in the afternoon
Ahh... Simon, you are The Man! I'm impressed and 'supa-chuffed' to have chatted to you only last week.A mighty collection, well done Sir..! Best regards, Ken.
I drew a celebrity connected to every single London Underground Station over the course of 2020. It became a very useful Lockdown project. If the famous person lived or was born near the station was the primary criterion, but I was often pushed to find famous people near some out of the way stations, so would include people if they went to school or worked nearby.
The caricatures were executed in black ink on bristol board printed with a colour graphic margin signifying the underground line that the station belongs to.
The project was featured on London ITV News and I am hopeful of getting some sort of publishing deal and some digital/video exhibition space at the London Transport Museum.
Seen here are just nine of the total 268 artworks available which have their own website which can easily be found.
