Illustrious Friday: Electricity

The electricity pole outside my house seems to be the official bird council place. They can often be heard complaining about the fact that I don't put out the more expensive wholegrain bread...I might relent this weekend.

Exhibition 20:21 Visual Arts Centre Scunthorpe uk: Storybored

Marc Renshaw is showcasing his 'Storybored series' - an eclectic range of drawings framed in groups, in a solo exhibition at 20:21 Visual Arts Centre in Scunthorpe, UK.

Marc's work combines real and imagined situations rendered with his unique style of computer manipulated drawing and sketchbook work.

Marc said, 'I recognise that much of my work is concerned with disclosure and find the art gallery to be a great platform in which I can invite the viewer to engage with my visual diary. I'm always on the look out for inspiration for the creation of my next image and seldom plan ahead, instead drawing what is in my immediate vicinity as I carry a sketchbook around most of the time.'

The exhibition runs from now until the 5th of April 2008 at 20:21 Visual Arts Centre, St Johns Church, Church Square, Scunthorpe. UK. tel 44 01724 297080.
