Since 2014
Who Is the Secret Artist?
My identity is not important, it’s the buildings that count. This project began in 2014 when my partner suggested I paint all the listed buildings in Kentish Town where we have lived for many years. There is always something to paint and the project is still going strong. Over four hundred paintings later and I’m still at it.
Photographs by day, painting by night. I draw every picture freehand on an iPad, in an app called Paper. The result is a digital file, which can be printed out at any size you like. I paint houses, shops, churches, street views, street furniture, playgrounds and just anything. I paint shopfronts that have changed hands, pubs that have closed. My paintings record the ever-changing streets of my favourite place in London.
