Make Your Mark

I love the complete randomness of Julie Mehretu's work, what looks like lots of small doodles and mark makings has turned into something mesmerising.

Fancy that!

This week I was lucky enough to go to the private view of Stuart Pearson Wrights new exhibtion which has opened at the Riflemakers Gallery in Soho. I was fascinated by his distinctive and striking portraits of celebrities and heavily tattooed people, which he often adds diamonds, pearls, and sequins to. We also had the opportunity to meet him which was very humbling. I strongly recommend a visit!
