Wrestlers on Saturdays


In the memory box I also found some little rotund wrestlers to paint and they are really fun.
Looking back through ancient footage from the 1980's these programmes were a crazy circus and fantastic for me to explore as a subject.
I can't remember being that into them as a child, but I do remember my grandfather sitting beneath his own dark cloud of cigarette smoke roaring at the TV as Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks rattled around the arena like jelly beans in fancy dress.

Pigeons I







I have been working on a new book since returning from Bologna and the start of this process has been many sketches and sheets of pigeons. As I love birds this is not a difficult task, it is a joy, including going out early in the morning armed with bags of corn to tempt them ever closer.

Tom Wilson II



Tom Wilson's work is documentation and meticulous observation from nature and from gathered natural findings. His house holds the makings of a fantastic museum of bird pellets, hides, bones, skulls, nests and other untold and unspeakable treasures, that hopefully will one day be available to everyone through a museum or series of books.
